You should also give Project Euler a shot:

http://projecteuler.net/index.php?section=problems

Just keep in mind two points.  One, your solutions should work with
under one minute of execution time, even in Python.  Secondly, the
main benefit of the site is attempting some of the simpler problems
and then diving head-first into the forums to see other peoples'
solutions to the same problem.

I guarantee you'll find some unique Python techniques from these
forums that should open new avenues of learning wrt Python for you.
Nothing enterprise level...but definitely interesting.  Be warned that
some of the harder problems require undergraduate-level math.
