National Vanilla Ice Cream Day celebrates the most popular ice cream flavor in the world — despite its “plain” reputation, genuine vanilla is one of the most labor-intensive and expensive spices to produce, requiring hand-pollination of the Vanilla planifolia orchid in Madagascar. National Gorgeous Grandma Day was created by Alice Solomon in 1984 to celebrate grandmothers who are vibrant, active, and resist society’s limiting expectations of women over 65. Fast of Ninth of Av — Tisha B’Av — is the most solemn Jewish fast day, mourning the destruction of both the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem on the ninth of Av: 586 BCE and 70 CE respectively. National Refreshment Day is observed on the fourth Thursday of July to celebrate cold drinks, outdoor rest, and taking a genuine break during summer’s peak heat. Vanilla, a vibrant grandmother, a day of ruins, and a cold drink.
