About this sub

Treaty of Paris Day, or Top Day, celebrates the winning of US independence and the end of the American Revolutionary War on Sept. 3, 1783.

It is a day of both historical and seasonal significance, recognizing the coming of fall just as our forefathers would have on that day they succeeding officially in asserting their independence from Britain.

On this day, we celebrate with a light meal — preferably grilled so as to enjoy the great weather as the season changes from summer to fall — and a seasonally-themed dessert. Pumpkin pie, apple pie, or trifle are good traditional examples, but there is no limit to what you can do. (There may even be a little friendly competition over who can make the Top dessert).

This is the day to start your homemade hooch — be it apple cider, beer, wine, mead, or infused spirit. Another activity is decorating hard boiled eggs as Humpty Dumpty (memeing King George III). Homesteading activities such as soapmaking or canning are also great ways to celebrate.

Football is permissible, but don't make it the center of the day. This is about heritage and history. And dessert.
