I MISSED A HOLIDAY

I just discovered that October 17 was FOUR PRUNES DAY.  I saw it on the HALLMARK CARDS web page.  I was intrigued by what the significance of four prunes could be.  I went searching the net but the only reference to this holiday I could find was the Hallmark page.  You don't suppose that there is no such holiday and Hallmark just made it up to sell cards......do you?
 
No matter.  Prunes are loaded with potassium which is good for everybody except people with kidney disease so I wouldn't have celebrated it anyway and I sure wouldn't have thought to send a card to somebody.  I can't think of anyone who, in the last 20 years, has even mentioned prunes.
