Default first day of the current month

I would like a cell to show the first day of the current month. For
example, today is Monday, February, 27, 2006. I would like the cell to show
Feb 1, 2006.

I tried

=month(now())

but it showed Jan 01, 1900.

I tried putting the =now() in one cell and then using =month(a1) where a1
referenced the cell with the now function with the same result as above.

Any suggestions?

Lila
