National Pie Day The American Pie Council® Recommends That Consumers Celebrate National Pie Day By Taking Some Time To Slow Down And Share Heartfelt Gratitude With Loved Ones Over A Delicious Slice Of Pie. After All, By Its Very Nature, A Pie Is Meant To Be Divided Among Others! Whether Shared Between Spouses, Among Parents And Children, Among Grandparents And Grandchildren, Or Simply Among Friends Or Coworkers, Pie Represents The Wholesome, Simple Pleasures That Often Get Overlooked In Today’s Fast-Paced World. http://www.piecouncil.org/events/nationalpieday

National Handwriting Day National Handwriting Day doesn’t boast free pie slices, but you can savor the lost art of handwriting on Jan. 23 by putting pen to paper. “Though computers and email play an important role in our lives, nothing will ever replace the sincerity and individualism expressed through the handwritten word,” said David Baker, executive director of the Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association, which set the designated date to celebrate handwriting in 1977.

The Writing Instrument Manufacturers Association planned the national day in conjunction with John Hancock’s birthday, because Hancock was the first to sign the Declaration of Independence with his renowned signature.
