Happy National Sardines Day, all you Sardine Eaters! What's your plan for the day? Eating a favorite tin? Scoping out and trying unknown tins? Sharing a tin with a non-sardine eater? Maybe even converting a tuna eater to sardines? (We know how those tuna eaters are!) For last year's "National Sardines Day," I donated sardines to a local food bank. I received great feedback on that from the food bank about how people were excited and surprised to find sardines at the food bank. This year I am donating a case of King Oscar sardines, as well as a hand full of coupons for free sardines, to the local food bank. Happy National Sardines Day! Enjoy your tins!

When you donate to a food drive, do you ponder the nutritional labels of the can in your hand?

Happy National Sardines Day, all you sardine eaters! 

What are your plans for National Sardines Day? Eating exotic tins, a favorite tin perhaps, venturing out to an unknown tin? 

In honor of National Sardines Day and the generous sardine eaters I've met this year, I've decided to give sardines. I purchased 24 tins of "Nice" brand sardines and donated them to our local food bank.  

Since most people's first sardine memory is eating a tin with their father or grandfather, share a tin today with someone and create a fond memory for someone . Just receiving a free tin could brighten someone's day.

Wishing everyone a great National Sardines Day!

Happy National Sardines Day, all you Sardine eaters!

So what will you do today to celebrate National Sardines Day? Will you eat your favorite tin, or venture into unknown territories with a new tin? Perhaps sit around drinking a cold one while playing spoons and drumming on empty tins. 

Unfortunately, I have to work on National sardines Day, 16-hour shifts at the hospital this weekend. So to celebrate, today I made several dishes. My first was Sardines on toast, with a special sauce.

 Then for breakfast, was Sardines, on a bed of rice topped off with an egg. 

                                               And then for the road was Sardines in a blanket.

All were interesting and yet very different. The brand I celebrated with today was "Adriatic Sun." To finish off National Sardines Day, I will eat a plain tin with crackers tonight.

 I'm still a believer that sardines are best just straight from the tin. So whatever you do today, I hope it's a good tin you have decided to pop!
