Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for uniforms, aprons, gloves, boots, badges, and the clothes that show people are ready to serve, build, clean, cook, or repair.
The day before Christmas Eve is the busiest day in the Norwegian Christmas calendar, and the tradition is to decorate the tree, prepare the food, and set the table. The family gathers to make riskrem (rice pudding), and the tradition is to hide an almond in the pudding. The person who finds the almond gets a marzipan pig as a prize. The house is cleaned, the candles are lit, and the anticipation builds for the main celebration the next day.
A day for herbs, flowers, seedlings, balcony pots, and every bit of green people manage to keep alive.
A day for the quick meal, the regular customer, the busy cook, and the food people rely on between obligations.
You observe Siberian tigers, Amur leopards, and sable across Russia's vast territories. You find that Russian families typically keep dogs, cats, and rabbits as their most common pets. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
