1945 január 10-én született Rod Stewart, brit énekes, dalszövegíró. Itt egy gyönyörű dal tőle, egy szülinapos tanítványomnak: 

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world!

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day and the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world!

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin', "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world!

The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of all the people goin' by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin', "How do you do?"
They're really sayin', "I love you"

I heard my babies cryin' and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I've ever, ever known
And I think to myself, it's a wonderful world!

I think to myself, what a wonderful world!
What a wonderful world!
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world!

January 3 is unofficially considered National Chocolate-Covered Cherry Day in the United States.

Cella's brand of cherry cordial confection

Chocolate covered cherries are a traditional dessert confection. Variations include cherry cordial candy with liquid fillings often including cherry liqueur, as well as chocolate covered candied cherries and chocolate covered dried cherries.

Manufacturers of chocolate covered cherries include Marich Confectionery and Cella's. Chocolate covered cherries feature in the story-line of the South Park episode Simpsons Already Did It. Cherry cordial candy are also popular. Chukar Cherries in central Washington state dries 250,000 pounds of cherries and creates a much richer taste.

Tom Faglon released a recipe for dark chocolate bark where he added pomegranate seeds on the surface of dark chocolate. The taste has been described by Melissa Clark of the New York Times as sophisticated.
