My favorite holiday is May Day it is symbolic of birth. It is also a time to brush off the dust of winter and start a fresh new life. The birds in the forest agree and sing praise to its arrival.

Hmm...I wonder if I could translate "Lady Godiva Day" into a justification for eating a whole box of chocolate?

Don't you wish there was a Lady Godiva for gasoline prices? The new ageLady Godiva would definitely make an impression
