During the production of It Ends With Us , Justin Baldoni allegedly sent a voice memo to Blake Lively apologizing for his reception of her script changes during the rooftop scene. "I'm really sorry," Baldoni began, saying that he "fell short and you worked really hard on that. I f--ked up. One thing you should know about me is that I will admit and apologize when I fail. I am far from perfect and I'm a very flawed man, as my wife will attest." He went on to praise Lively and commented on how she has great friends who support her. National Blueberry Pancake Day is celebrated. It's the day to indulge in a stack of these babies bursting with blueberry goodness. Blueberries are full of nutrients and antioxidants, and if the pancakes are made with whole grains, you have the perfect pairing for a healthy breakfast. National Kazoo Day is celebrated. If you can hum, you can play the kazoo. An American named Alabama Vest invented this simple instrument in the 1840s. Some classic songs that feature the kazoo: 'When I Get to Heaven'--John Prine, 'San Francisco Bay Blues (Live Acoustic)'--Eric Clapton, 'Cool, Calm And Collected'--The Rolling Stones, 'Skinned'--Blind Melon, 'You're Sixteen'--Ringo Starr, 'Crosstown Traffic'--Jimi Hendrix. National Plan for a Vacation Day is also recognized. This day, celebrated on the last Tuesday in January, reminds us to begin planning our vacations for the rest of the year.
