Frog Jump Day
Frog Jump Day is celebrated annually on May 13. The holiday was inspired by Mark Twain's famous story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County", which became one of the author's first major literary successes.
In 1865, Mark Twain published a story about a man who trained a frog for jumping competitions. The events of the story take place in Calaveras County (California, USA), and over time this place became the center of celebrations, where the annual frog jumping festival is held, where frogs compete to see who jumps the farthest. Record jumps are recorded officially.
The record frog jump at the festival is over 6.5 meters.

International Hummus Day
International Hummus Day is also celebrated on May 13. This popular dish came to us from the Middle East, and it has gained particular popularity among vegetarians and gluten-free dieters.
Hummus was first mentioned in the 13th century. The composition of hummus is: mashed chickpeas, olive oil, sesame paste, lemon juice and spices. It is most often served as a cold appetizer.
However, Hummus Day is not just another reason to taste this dish. The holiday was invented in 2012 by Israeli entrepreneur Ben Lang to unite and reconcile the people of the Middle East, which is especially important this year.
