It's ok to go a little bananas!!!!



That's why we pulled this photo out of our archives and dusted it off because today is

 BANANA DAY!!!!

It's the day to celebrate bananas in every form. In the above photos Cody was lounging after a "banana high" from his Nip Nanner!!! 

From Days Of The Year:  Banana Day is a bit like a heady mix of April Fool’s Day and Halloween (without the sweets or vandalism) and with a helpful portion of healthy eating thrown in for good measure.

The origins of Banana Day, which is aimed at celebrating bananas in every conceivable sense of the word, are murky. However it’s known that every year students at many prestigious American universities use Banana Day as a way of celebrating this humble lunchbox standard. They eat and share weird and wonderful banana concoctions (banana punch, anyone?), they dress as bananas and they generally go a bit…well…nuts. And bananas too, of course

Throughout these crazy times in which we are all living, I am certain that each and every one of us at some point has felt like we were going (or are about to) go bananas at any time!

Hang in there all, there IS a light at the end of the tunnel!

Lots of love from us to you!

  1. Ah, yes...we sure are going bonkers...um, I mean bananas during this lockdown stuff...

    I, Pipo, ripped up my nip nanner a long time ago...I had a fish one, but I didn't like it as much. Now I hardly play with any of them...to get me to go bananas just give me plain nip! Ahhh!

    Petcretary cannot eat raw bananas, even though she likes them...she is allergic to them. (cooked is fine...)
    Banana bread? You betcha!
    Pudding...no thanks...pie....um...no thanks. Popsicles? Maybe!

    Have a fun day...don't turn into a monkey though! Way back, MJF liked to eat a hunk of banana now and then...

  3. We read somewhere that students at "prestigious American universities" seem to think bananas are some kind of racial slur. Talk about paranoia!

  13. Hi Cody! Our mom bought Lexy a banana, but it fell on the floor in the building hallway and she won't give it to her yet. She's a little coo-koo about germs these days.

  15. We're all feeling a bit bananas here lately. Nip bananas are the cats' favorite, along with the nip tomato.
