Daily Holidays - June 23

National Pecan Sandy 
Day National Pecan Sandies Day is an American food holiday that is celebrated by cookie lovers each year on June 23rd.

As long as baking is documented, cookie-like wafers have existed. This is in a large part because they deal with travel very well. Cookies have changed and evolved over the years with the modern standards of sweetness and the many various varieties.

Pecan sandies are a favorite of many and are typically made with a combination of flour, sugars, butter, pecans and a few additional ingredients. The texture of these melt-in-your-mouth cookies are similar to shortbread cookies. http://nationaldaycalendar.com/days-2/national-pecan-sandies-day-june-23/

Let It Go Day You know those nagging regrets and grudges that tug at your soul weeks, months or even years after the people, jobs or situations which once made them important ceased to be part of your life? Yes, there was a time when you felt you had to take every opportunity to demonstrate to your ex, you former workmates or classmates how well you were doing without them but isn’t it finally time to move on and let go of the negative emotion pulling you down.

That is exactly what Let It Go Day is all about; a national day when you know you are not in taking the brave step to cast away all those hang-ups from a previous chapter in your life.
Let It Go Day is the perfect occasion to stop wasting your energy on negative feelings from the past and instead focus on building yourself a positive future. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/let-it-go-day/
