Sourdough September celebrates the world's oldest leavened bread, giving everyone a chance to enjoy this delicious delight the entire month.
The entire month of September provides opportunity for bread baker's across the world to share their talent of making sourdough bread. Initially starting as a campaign, this month long bread holiday has turned into a food celebration.
What is sourdough bread? Unlike dry yeast breads, sourdough bread begins from a "starter" that contains a live culture of yeast. Interestingly, a sourdough starter can be a saved piece of sourdough bread from a previous or old piece of bread. The "sour" part of the dough is created by adding water and flour every week to the old piece of bread until it becomes fermented. Basically, a process naturally occurs between the yeast and "good" bacteria causes the mixture to sour and prompts growth. That growth eventually becomes a loaf of bread.

Each year, National Hispanic Heritage Month is observed from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the contributions and importance of Hispanics and Latinos to the United States and those American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. September 15th was chosen as the kickoff date since it coincides with the Independence Day celebrations of five countries (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua), followed by Mexico on September 16th, Chile on the 18th, and Belize on the 21st. Another important date that falls within this 30-day period is Día de la Raza, or Indigenous Peoples Day, which is celebrated in Mexico and other countries on October 12th.
Please join in recognizing and paying tribute to generations of Hispanic or Latin people who have positively influenced and enriched our nation and society through their achievements and contributions. Let’s celebrate the rich culture, histories and diversity of the Hispanic community!

Positive Attitude Month is an annual designation observed in October. A positive attitude is the best trait you can carry with you, because it makes any difficult or frustrating situation a lot easier to deal with. If you look at most scenarios as “glass half empty,” now is the time to change that!
Remember to think positively and expect great things. There are many ways to be more positive, but here are three:
Cultivate and live in a positive environment
Add value and positivity to someone else’s life.
Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill.
Remember “One small positive thought can change your whole day.”
