Three days you never thought would go together get celebrated on one day...

Those three days include;Saint Basil's Day, First Foot Day and New Years Day. They all got the chance to be celebrated on January 1st of this year.

Only three days that are this unique can come to be celebrated on one day in the obscure holiday world, and boy howdy these are unique.

As with any holiday there are recipes that are within the family, but for those that do not have the luxury of generational recipes, the internet provides a great point to learn a few new recipes, and learn information to boot.

No matter which day you choose there are some great recipes that will satisfy the cravings you have. Plus there is no better way to have time with the family, than in the kitchen creating great culinary memories that will be remembered for generations. When you have family time in the kitchen, not only are you creating those great memories, but potentially creating dishes that will become family favorites or even friend favorites later on down the road. Remember the number one rule of the kitchen: Be Safe and Have Fun!
