October 25 is World Pasta Day. \nPeople have been eating pasta since at least 5\,000 B.C. \nHowever\, this delightful holiday was only established in 1995\, when 40 pasta producers from around the world gathered to hold the globe’s first World Pasta Congress. \nSince then\, the world has joined forces each October to pay tribute to one of the most delicious and versatile foods known to man. \nWhether you prefer rigatoni\, spaghetti\, or pappardelle\, you’ll love this holiday! \nWorld Pasta Day is celebrated at home and restaurants\, which may offer specials on the day. Many other locations\, such as senior centers and churches\, may host pasta parties and all-you-can-eat spaghetti dinners. \nPasta is made with flour\, salt\, water\, and eggs. \nWhere will you celebrate?

SUMMARY:Pender's Mini Free Pantry
DESCRIPTION:Pender’s Mini Food Pantry: A Small Space with a Big Mission\nThe Pender Mini Food Pantry is officially open and ready to serve our community! This little structure—built as an Eagle Scout Project by one of Pender’s Boy Scouts—is a beautiful example of service\, compassion\, and creativity. \nAt first glance\, it looks a lot like a Little Free Library\, but instead of books\, it’s stocked with nonperishable food for anyone in need. It’s a simple yet powerful way to share kindness and nourishment in our neighborhood. \n📍 Location:\nYou’ll find the pantry at 12301 Alder Woods Drive\, Fairfax\, VA 22033—coming from Route 50\, it’s the second driveway on the left into Pender\, right beside the sidewalk. \n🥫 What’s Inside:\nAs of this writing\, the pantry is filled with a wide variety of items\, including: \n\nCanned tuna\, chicken\, chili\, and soup\nBroth\, vegetables\, pumpkin\, and apple sauce\nShelf-stable milk\, peach slices\, mandarin oranges\, and individual fruit packs\nJello\, pudding cups\, mac and cheese servings\, and mashed potatoes\nCoffee\, oatmeal\, ketchup\, gravy packets\, and cooking oil\n\nIt’s truly a community effort—and every contribution helps keep it going. \n💜 How to Help:\nAnyone is welcome to take what they need or to donate food items to keep the pantry stocked. When you give\, please remember our guiding principle: \nGive with dignity. Donate items you’d feel comfortable using yourself. \n
