Today is the Date to Create, a day to unleash our creative potential to solve problems.
Today is also Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbors' Porch Night, to share the baskets of squash you have as a result of overzealous planting. You can make a wish upon hundreds of falling stars beginning Wednesday, during the Perseid Meteor Showers. Thursday is the anniversary of the Founding of the Smithsonian Institution in 1846, Sunday is the anniversary of the day in 1851 when Isaac Singer developed the sewing machine for use in homes, and Monday is the 65th anniversary of the Social Security Act. BOOK TALK Librarian Rosie Klopfer provides this week's book information. You can add some country to your home with projects such as birdfeeders, weathervanes, shutters, furniture, and more.
