November 2, 2022 - National Stress Awareness Day | National Deviled Egg Day

Welcome to November 2, 2022 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate getting a grip and a spicy history. Okay, I’ll admit it: “I’m Stressed!” So I’m not sure why I have to celebrate National Stress Awareness Day? Why can’t this day fall on National Chocolate Day? I’m sure we’re all aware that stress is the number one indicator of how long or how short your life will be. Today it’s time to take a serious look at what’s been eating you. Like seriously! Take a walk, have a bath, call a friend, get a massage or simply take a breath. It’s that important to get a game plan for how you will outwit stress in your life. What’s your favorite way to destress Marlo? While a lot of foods fall in and out of favor, it appears that deviled eggs have a long history of success. Even the Ancient Romans liked boiled eggs with spicy sauce as the opening act of their meal. And while 13th century Spaniards began smashing the yolks as a filling, the term deviling didn’t appear until the 18th century. This is when a little heat became associated with the devil. Today, no potluck or gathering would be complete without deviled eggs. New twists on this classic hor d’oeuvre can be made by adding smoked paprika or even avocado and lime to the filling. On National Deviled Egg Day, don’t be afraid to celebrate your spicy side with a devil may care level of heat. I’m Anna Devere and I’m Marlo Anderson. Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day.
