National Superhero Day is here and its time to celebrate! Honoring the superheroes in our lives that made us who we are, whether fictional or real, is important. So, today, I challenge everyone who has a special superhero in their life to take them to lunch or maybe just say thank you. So, if your superhero is Batman, maybe read a Batman comic book (or say thanks to Ben Affleck, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, and the numerous other Batman's in the world).

Does anyone remember when Krispy Kreme's gave away free donuts? The creamy glaze glistening off the smooth golden brown bread. If only donuts were healthy foods...

If you have a real superhero: family member, teacher, veteran, etc. take them out for a meal or just hangout with them. I know I am going to hangout today (and this weekend) with my favorite superhero, my brother. I always enjoy hanging out with him and he has always been a positive influence on my life. He keeps me motivated to work hard at pursuing my writing passions. So, to all those superheroes out there: "Thank You for being Awesome!"
