March was always a special month for me as a young girl growing up in the former Soviet Union. Not much was taken for granted during those early years. At the end of each February, there was a buzz—both sexes, young and old, planned, or even bribed merchants on the Black Market, to make secret arrangements to have the opportunity to buy flowers on March 8th. Women, regarded as the backbone in Russian society, are recognized for their hard work during the harsh winters and are celebrated and adorned with flowers and special treats at the first signs of spring.
Although this holiday is not really popular in the United States, I have spent over 30 years celebrating all the women in my life, and wishing them all the best on this glorious and special day! I urge you to celebrate all the Fabulous Women in your life tomorrow.
I love the idea of this holiday. I had no idea! I googled it and got some great information on its history. Thank you, Yana for sharing so we can pass it along to the men in our lives. Thank you also, Anna Maria, for sharing your childhood memories of the holiday.
So, it is another day I can drop my apron and declare it a “No cook day” Yeeha!
Haha chocolatier, I googled it also
I cannot believe that I have not heard of it before, Yana you‘re the best!!
Ok really how do we celebrate?
I agree Chinadoll, NO COOKING!! uh except I don’t have a husband to cook for me, uhmm gotta work that one out!
Yes, we need to celebrate here. Conference call???? or let’s think of some good questions to ask tomorrow???
Why I am proud being a woman rather than being a man? ... hmmm, I am thinking and will sleep on it more.
Keep thinking and we will bomb the site tomorrow. Hee hee. (gas bomb - stinky!)
Thank you Yana. I have not heard of “Women’s Day“,I think when it is well known, men will demand having “Men’s Day“. Originally I don’t think there was a Father’s Day at least when I was growing up; now there is one.
This is like mothers day only it’s for every female on earth! what a wonderful thing to do!
Thank You for sharing this date with all of us! Now I must go celebrate all my friends. :)
Create lasting relationships
with other like minded women.
