I keep forgetting to watch Queen of Sauce 16 of Winter. I think it would be a nice to have some kind of alarm clock in the game to remind you about some events in the season, like Queen of Sauce or when your super iridium is ready.
Queen of Sauce issue is solved just by making it a habit to turn on the TV first thing in the morning after you wake up . I don't know about the super iridium thing though.
I just start my day EVERY DAY with looking at the TV. That way I can see the upcoming weather, the luck of the day, and any other entries on the TV for that day. ^^
