THIS IS FUN: THE HISTORY OF CSS

I started in 1994, so I watched and participated in the changes.

30 years of CSS across 7 eras: who invented it, what the browser wars broke, how the dark ages hacks worked, when Grid and Custom Properties finally shipped, and where CSS is heading.

HOW MUCH EFFORT DOES IT TAKE TO REMEMBER YOU?

This lady at the Hamilton Farmers Market had aprons with an amazing feature: the ties run through from the neck to the waist, allowing you to pull it down and have more to tie in front. No more putting a knot in the back of the neck.

The problem is "who is she?" How can I send a link to my cooking friends and family? There is a little tag on the apron. I can see it if I enlarge the photo. But, the URL doesn't exist and I can't find any other mention of Wild Turkey Acres, except a boarding facility in California.

Artists, musicians, craftsmen, etc. love to make their product. They are proud of their products. But, often, they don't see the other side of the sale.

If you know this lady, can you put in a good word for her here? Are her products found in other venues? Thanks!

From high value trees torn down in a wind storm to paper products, it all has a second, and a third life. Here is a beautiful example.

PAYING ATTENTION TO YOUR SMALL COMMUNITY MARKETS

In a city, there are many options. Not so in a small town. When a business that operates in a large city opens a branch in a small town. They need to make some cultural adjustments.

I found myself headed down Hwy 93 without cash for trip to farmers market with some friends. My credit union has a branch in Stevensville, so I took a side trip. There were cones across the entrance and exit, so I figured they had paved. I parked my car and walked to the ATM. Another lady was ahead of me walking, as well. We both looked up and down the ATM machine. It was off with no sign.

The things is, it was market day in Stevensville too. These small markets depend on cash. If there were two of us there in a 5 minute period of time, how many other people tried to use that ATM?

I was ashamed of my credit union that day.

WHAT IS DOROTHY HINSHAW PATENT UP TO THESE DAYS?

The delight of still being in contact with Greg and Dorothy Patent is their joy in the world around them.

In the distant past, some ancestors of migrating Canada geese got lost and landed in Hawai'i. These became the ancestors of the beautiful Hawaiian bird, the nene.
