For those who don’t know how National Put A Pillow On Your Fridge Day originated, well, here is how:
This holiday spans back to the early 1900s when families would place a piece of cloth or linen in their larders.
Before being put in their larder, the cloth would have typically been torn from something kept in their bedroom, such as a blanket or nightgown.
The families thought good fortune and prosperity would come from this.
They believed placing a piece of cloth from their bedroom into where their food was kept brought about the possibility of plentiful food and rich fertility to their household.

It just so happens it’s also Memorial Day here in the USA. May all who gave the ultimate sacrifice rest in peace.

Being clipped isn’t as bad as being tacked, spindled or folded!

Paper clips are useful for other things – like for hanging Christmas ornaments.

Red Swingline stapler. Many people have one and don’t know the significance.

I would have to remove everything I have on the top of my refrigerator and clean it before I could put a pillow on it. That is not going to happen.
