Tongue Twister Contest, Kindness Day, Indian Pudding Day

November 13th, 2011, is International Tongue Twister Contest, World Kindness Day, and National Indian Pudding Day.

The 13th annual  International Tongue Twister Contest takes place today in Burlington, Wisconsin, at the Logic Puzzle Museum.

November 13th is World Kindness Day. According to the World Kindness Movement, World Kindness Day is a time to "look beyond ourselves, beyond the boundaries of our country, beyond our culture, our race, our religion; and realise we are citizens of the world."

National Indian Pudding Day celebrates a custard featuring corn meal, molasses, and sometimes apples. Oddly enough, Indian pudding seems to be an invention of the Pilgrims, not the Native Americans.
