30 Delicious Reasons to Celebrate June
By Ming Hu
Let’s face it. June is one of the saddest months of the year. There aren’t any federal holidays to free you from the chains of your cubicles, which mean no reason to take a three day weekend out of town and no reason to drink like it’s the end of the world…
After Memorial Day weekend, you just face palm thinking how far away 4th of July is. Rather than wallowing in your own misery, let’s look at June in a different way this year. Instead of 30 uneventful days, here’s 30 delicious food holidays. Celebrate every day this month with something different!
