On the French Republican Calendar (observed 1793-1805), our date of 1 June was honored as Pea Day (Pois, 13 Prairial). It gives me a good chance to wear my VeggieTales® tie featuring the French Peas and Junior Carrot! In that animated series the French Peas were the soldiers guarding the wall of Jericho (before it fell to the marching Israelites).
