goodbye/fun facts....tip your hat for National Felt Hat Day! The observance recognizes a stylish head protection worn throughout history. Historically, men and women wore hats as protection and status symbols, too. This time of year, people traded in the lighter, cooler straw hat for the warmer felt hat....The phrase “a mad as a hatter” comes from the use of mercury nitrate in haberdasheries in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Over time, daily exposure to this metal caused these tradesmen to develop dementia, tics and other symptoms. These unusual side effects caused people to believe their hatters had gone mad.

goodbye/fun facts....Cream-filled donuts come in so many varieties...boston, bavarian, vanilla, chocolate, lemon, strawberry etc etc etc...In what is now known as New York City in the United States, the settlers from Denmark had a cake that they called (rather unappetizingly) “oil cake”, or “olykoek”....the filled donut started with a woman named Elizabeth Gregory who made a savory donut with cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon rind, and then filled the center with a mixture of hazelnuts or walnuts to replace the missing dough. While the person who decided that crème would make a delightful filling isn’t recorded, we do know that it all started here with Elizabeth Gregory and her idea of filling donuts

goodbye/fun facts....Skilled cabinet-maker and English inventor, Thomas Saint, received the first patent for a design of a sewing machine in 1790. but he never built one...he just had the patent drawings...so in In 1874, William Newton Wilson found Saint’s drawings in the London Patent Office. With some minor adjustments, Wilson built a working model. Then in in 1846, Elias Howe was awarded the first American patent on a sewing machine but In 1851, another inventor, Isaac Singer, developed a sewing machine model that would endure and also thrust him into court with Elias Howe over patent infringement....flash forward decades later and you can tune in to the "Great British Sewing Bee," a spinoff of the wildly popular "Great British Bake-Off,"

goodbye/fun facts....International Sudoku Day takes place, of course, on September 9 (9/9). Sudoku enthusiasts will no doubt notice the date’s symbolism. The goal of the Sudoku game is to fill a 9×9 grid so that each column, row, and 3×3 sub-grid contains all the digits from 1 to 9.  Sudoku is based on an early mathematical analysis concept designed in 1782  Today, Sudoku is readily available on smartphone apps and widely printed in papers and magazines. It’s the subject of multiple documentaries and game shows, and even spawned an award-nominated original tune by songwriter Peter Levy.

goodbye/fun facts....How did summer’s “last big fling” come to be? Most historians trace the first Labor Day celebration back to 1884, when the Knights of Labor held one of New York’s largest parades to honor the working class. They then passed a resolution vowing to always hold a parade on the first Monday of September.… Labor organizations began lobbying state legislatures to recognize Labor Day as an official state holiday. Colorado was the first to do so, followed by New York, Massachusetts, and New Jersey. By 1894, Congress had declared it a legal holiday

goodbye/fun facts....Penny Press Day...On September 3rd, 1833, The New York Sun newspaper first appeared, marking the beginning of the 'penny press': one cent newspapers (hence the name) sold on sidewalks by newspaper boys. The paper focused on human interest stories and sensationalism and by 1836 was the largest seller in America. Priced at a fraction of the price of the elite 6 cent newspapers that dominated the market, the Sun was affordable and accessible to all, a move that made the free press a true friend of the people at the time because they were dealing with a recession and a cholera pandemic at the time.

goodbye/fun facts....World Letter Writing Day encourages people worldwide to pick up a pen, grab a piece of paper, and write a letter. It’s also a day to learn about the art of letter writing. In this digital age of text and e-mail, it’s almost unheard of to sit down and compose a letter. One more reason to write a letter instead of a text or e-mail is that it forces you to really think about what you’re writing. Far too often, we hurriedly send texts and e-mails without really thinking about the impact our words have on the receiver. With a handwritten letter, you are forced to be more careful with the words you choose.
