Three Things to Know for Tuesday, September 6th!
1. Notable news found from outside sources:

Massachusetts full of praise for new saint.

3. Scheduled events on the agenda for today:
5:30pm Book launch event – “Not My Mother’s Kitchen.” Award-winning chef Rob Chirico learned to cook as a defense against his Italian mother’s awful meals. The first sentence of his touching, funny memoir is “My mother was an assassin.” Unlike what we imagine the traditional Italian mother—creating mouthwatering dishes like Cacio e Pepe and Summer Puttanesca—Mrs. Chirico did not like to cook.
