It’s National Pierogi Day!

Today in not just Nerd History, But Family History, It’s National Pierogi Day!

Since we are a family owned business, we wanted to share one of our traditions with you all. For Christmas Eve and Easter, we do a traditional Polish 13 course meal. One of the most classic and important parts of that is the Pierogi. A few days before we spend the entire day making pierogi from scratch, cover the house in flour, and fry everything to be ready for everyone to come over.

What are your family traditions? Let us know in the comments!

5 Interesting Ninja Facts

Ready for some NINJA FACTS?

(Ninja in the dark)

1: The first historical record of ninja comes from the Taiheiki war chronicle written around 1375. It states that ninja were sent out on a stormy night to infiltrate and burn down enemy buildings.

(Ninja kicking)

2: There are very scant records for the ninja in the warring periods and it is only after peace arrived in the 1600’s that some peacetime ninja began to record their skills. The most famous of these is the colossal “ninja bible” known as the Bansenshukai which was written in 1676. There are an estimated 400 – 500 ninja manuals spread across Japan, many of which are still kept secret.

(Ninja with a sword)

3: Popular media often portrays the samurai and ninja to be enemies. In fact the term ninja often refers to a warrior of any class within a samurai army and the position of ninja was akin to modern day Special Forces attached to the main force. Many samurai were trained in ninjutsu – the skills of the ninja – and a lord would keep his ninja close.

(Ninja in Smoke)

4: “Ninja throwing stars” have almost no historical connection to the ninja. Throwing stars were a secret weapon used in many samurai schools and they only became attached to the ninja in the 20th century through comic books and animation.

(Blonde female Ninja)

5: A popular argument today is that ninja did not wear black as it was too dark at night time and in fact they wore blue. This is a misunderstanding which originated from a ninja manual called the Shoninki (True Path of the Ninja) written in 1681. It states that a ninja can wear blue to blend in with crowds as this color was popular, meaning that a ninja would not stand out in a city or town if people were looking for them, it was used to blend in with the masses. In fact ninja documents say to wear black on a moonless night and white on a full moon.

Today in Nerd History: It’s Ask a Stupid Question Day!

This holiday began in the 80’s to help encourage kids to ask the questions they are afraid to ask. Knowledge is important and so many kids feel that they can’t ask something without judgement from their peers or teachers. We love Ask a Stupid Question Day because it encourages people to ask the questions and always continue learning no matter what. No question is a stupid question!
