Happy Boxing Day!
Happy Boxing Day!
Boxing Day? Well, yes. It is an honest to goodness holiday in Britain and aside from being one more guaranteed day off from work following the Christmas holiday (Dec. 26th is not a public holiday in the U.S.), it is also the official day of boxing up old toys, belongings and, you know, junk that we no longer use and box it up.
Or maybe that’s just us and how we celebrate the holiday.
In fact, there are a few theories about the origins of Boxing Day. Check out the Time Magazine story.
However you’re celebrating this special sleeper holiday, I hope it finds you smiling!
