| Let's Make Plans!
Keep up with your days in style and with a healthy splash of trivia, wit, and wisdom with the 2022 Planner from The Old Farmer's Almanac. | | Dear Reader,
Have you had days that just piled up? Did a forgotten appointment snowball into an afternoon of frantically trying to catch up?
It doesn’t need to be this way. You don’t have to be at the mercy of unexpected school projects or that dentist appointment you made six months ago. Never will you be surprised by that visit from your in-laws that you thought was “next” week. The Old Farmer’s Almanac 2022 Planner is your key to controlling your schedule. This is no ordinary planner, though.
Sure, all the holidays are here, along with plenty of room to write in reminders and engagements. But we aren’t about to leave you to navigate those social outings on your own. This planner is full of fun trivia, wit, and wisdom you can use to amuse yourself or lighten up a conversation at the next PTO meeting. Try sharing this fun fact: Did you know that a raindrop can fall at speeds up to 18 miles per hour?
Here’s another one that works: Did you know that it can take 30 days for a sloth to digest a meal? Everyone loves sloths and anyone you want to talk to should be interested in some fun trivia!
Or take the humorous approach. What’s the definition of “vitamin?” It’s what you do when a friend comes to the door! Riddles work, too. Here’s one that’s sure to win you some accolades:
My inside can be up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than my outside. I am 95 percent water. What am I?
Simmer on that for a bit. The answer is below. For now, though, there’s so much more to share with you about the 2022 Planner and this year’s Old Farmer’s Almanac. |  | | | You Can Sink Your Teeth Into This | Folklore has always been a centerpiece of The Old Farmer’s Almanac. You’ll find a fair share in the 2022 Planner, but along with that planner, you also get the 2022 Old Farmer’s Almanac, which, naturally, includes some interesting folklore about teeth.
For example, did you know that science upholds the notion that wisdom teeth are appropriately named? According to some folk tales, children don’t gain knowledge or wisdom until their wisdom teeth appear. There is some truth to this. Wisdom teeth generally come in when we reach our late teens or early 20s, which is the same time that the part of the brain responsible for decision making is fully developed. Not all folklore is born out by science, however.
According to some American lore, you can cure a toothache by running three times around a church without thinking of a fox. Another cure is to eat the eyes of a vulture. Teeth could also bring good fortune. The Vikings would pay children for their milk teeth (baby teeth). They would wear these teeth around their necks in battle, believing that the teeth would bring luck. | | | | | | Enjoy 40% savings with your Charter Membership in The Old Farmer’s Almanac 1792 Society! | | | Get all of the 2022 wonder, wit, and wisdom published by The Old Farmer’s Almanac—Become a Charter Member today! |
| | You save 40% off of the retail value! | | | | | Feeling Good | There are so many more fun facts and folklore that come together in helpful ways, and you’ll find them spread throughout the 2022 Planner, the Everyday Desk Calendar, The Old Farmer’s Almanac EXTRA!, the 2022 Hardcover Collector’s edition of The Old Farmer’s Almanac, and even the replica editions of the Almanac from 1822 and 1922. These (and many more BONUSES) are all included with your membership in The Old Farmer’s Almanac 1792 Society.
Here are some that may improve your health. Or if not your health, at least your knowledge of interesting facts! We’ll leave it to you to decide which of these might work. - A copper penny taped to your navel is said to cure seasickness.
- You can stay cool in hot weather! Spicy food induces sweating, which can help you feel cooler.
- Write those thank you notes. Research shows that thank you notes boost happiness in both the sender and receiver.
- Brush your teeth with mashed strawberries and baking soda to help remove stains.
- Though honey is sweet, do not lick it off a bear. (This one is true! Trust us!)
- For healthy skin, eat a handful of almonds every day.
What could be better than fun facts, trivia, wit, and wisdom along with the perfect planner to keep your days organized? How about the answer to an age-old question. Why is a tomato known as a vegetable even though it’s actually a fruit? To get the answer, turn to Monday, March 21 in the 2022 Planner.
There is one answer we owe you, though, from this riddle. My inside can be up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than my outside. I am 95 percent water. What am I? A cucumber! | | | | | | Enjoy 40% savings with your Charter Membership in The Old Farmer’s Almanac 1792 Society! | | | Get all of the 2022 wonder, wit, and wisdom published by The Old Farmer’s Almanac—Become a Charter Member today! |
