Festa Della Donna

Or, as it's called far less elegantly in English, "International Women's Day".  Now I'm going to say something you might not have expected; despite the apparent feminism of the day, I'm thinking that this March 8, we'd do well to celebrate it.  Let's buy the ladies in our life a mimosa (either the flower or the drink or both, really), cheer for womens' sports (Will Thomas, you're not invited), and celebrate real femininity.

And guys, don't worry about the imbalance--Pi Day and Festa Bistecca e Pompino (again using Italian for obvious reasons) are coming up on the 14th.  Or maybe, just maybe, celebrating real feminity is a way to encourage the belle donne in our lives to celebrate real masculinity.
