Hi!

Today on the show I talked about how today is National Chocolate Milk Day, World Tourism Day, and how today is a very special day for one of our Founding Fathers.

Did you know that chocolate milk really wasn’t discovered until the late 1600s? I had no idea either. Chocolate milk was used for Medicinal purposes early on, then when Hershey released their chocolate syrup it became more widespread and easy to make throughout the country. I personally love chocolate milk! And it is somewhat healthy for you as well.

Today is also World Tourism Day. I have never personally traveled outside of the United States, but that is something that I want to do during my lifetime. So, if you’re feeling up to it, go visit different places around the world.
