The creators of the French Republican Calendar selected the humble donkey (âne) to honor on 15 Vendémiaire, the date we call 6 October. My tie shows blue Eeyore, as imagined in the Disney animations of the Winnie-the-Pooh stories. Our garden ornament shows Eeyore with the words "Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them." While that sentiment is clever, it's not actually from the writings of A. A. Milne. My tie bar holds a bowtie noodle because today is National Noodle Day.
