There seems to be a "National Day" for everything! Normally, I don't care (unless it relates to cats or to me having an excuse for a good dinner...). However, when the National _____ Day unintentionally refers to a clogging step, I'm on board!

One website I researched claims there are 1400+ National _____ Days in the United States! That's NOT counting the International _____ Days or events that claim an entire week or month!

Some of them are pretty silly! Sorry, you already missed National Step in a Puddle and Splash Your Friends Day (January 11), but you still have time to make plans for National Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day (last Monday in January, which falls on January 30 in 2017).

TODAY, January 19, is National Popcorn Day! If you know the popcorn step, feel free to randomly display 8 counts of fun throughout the day! If you don't know the popcorn step, what better day to learn?! 

On behalf of the Fancy Free Cloggers, I wish you a Happy National Popcorn Day! 

(Thank you to teammates Molly, Krista, and Jordan for making this video!)

If you need to learn the popcorn step, there are several instructional videos available on YouTube. Here's one with Morgan Hudson teaching the regular popcorn AND one of his crazy variations. If you already know the regular popcorn, give his "jazzed up" version a try!

Whew! If you made it through that, you probably need a snack! I suggest a bowl of hot, buttered popcorn...

Happy Popcorn Day!

Will YOU be celebrating any unusual National Days?
