Daily Holidays - June 22

National Chocolate Éclair Day Sweet choux dough, chocolate, cream and icing; this light but oh-so tasty pastry snack is the star of Chocolate Eclair Day. Originating from France in the nineteenth century, eclairs are known a favorite cake all over the world. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/chocolate-eclair-day/

National Onion Rings Day They’re rich and crisp and delicious, surprisingly sweet for a flavor so often related to being spicy and the source of tears. But something about the process of breading them in a flavorful coating and deep frying them in a vat of oil brings out the delicious flavors hidden inside. They come in towers and flowers, giant sized and tiny, and they’re a favorite at burger joints all over the world. That’s right, we’re talking about the onion rings, and Onion Rings Day celebrates this delicious treat and its long history. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/onion-rings-day/

When I was away at school there was a local bakery that made the best ones ever! I wonder if it's still there??
