Guacamole was invented by the Aztecs. The podcast Gastropod reports that avocados were first used as tributes from townsfolk to local royalty in Mesoamerica 7,000 years ago. California leads the U.S. production of avocados.
Cinnamon-raisin bread has a long history in the making. Its predecessors include stollen, a German fruit bread with spices and candied fruits, kulich, a tall Easter bread served in the Russian and Slavic regions, and panettone, a tall raisin-filled fruit cake made in Italy.
On September 16 is National Play Dough Day, which is the perfect excuse to make some homemade play dough. The main benefit of sensory play—activities that stimulate a child’s sense of touch, smell, taste, sight and hearing — is that it’s one of the best ways children learn about the world around them.
