Pepper Pot Day
Today is Pepper Pot Day! Pepper pot is a thick spicy soup first created on December 29, 1777. During the Revolutionary War, the Continental Army experienced an exceptionally harsh winter in Valley Forge. The soldiers were low on food because the farmers in the area sold all their supplies to the British Army for cash rather than the weak currency that the Continental soldiers could offer.
Christopher Ludwick, the baker general of the Continental Army, gathered whatever food he could find to feed the frail soldiers. The chef was able to find scraps of tripe, meat, and some peppercorn. He mixed the ingredients together with some other seasonings and created the hot spicy soup we now know as pepper pot. It became known as "the soup that won the war."
To celebrate this historic dish, try making your own pepper pot soup today! Its the perfect way to warm up on a chilly December day.

The true test of a leader is whether his followers will adhere to his cause from their own volition, enduring the most arduous hardships without being forced to do so, and remaining steadfast in the moments of greatest peril.

I want to mention that price for a meal was when I was a kid!Fact: I actually worked for Frisch's Big Boy restaurants here in Cincinnati years ago. I remember that a big boy sandwich, an order of fries and a small coke came to $1.26!! (Long time ago)
These vinyl Big Boy bank dolls are selling on eBay and some sellers are asking $50.00 or more for them!

The Western Lowland Gorilla's scientific name is Gorilla gorilla gorilla.
Yes, it sounds ridiculous, but it's true. Gorilla is the name of the genus, the species and the subspecies. In addition, modern humans are homo sapiens sapiens

The first electric Christmas lights were created by a telephone company PBX installer. Back in the old days, candles were used to decorate Christmas trees. This was obviously very dangerous. Telephone employees are trained to be safety concious. This installer took the lights from an old switchboard, connected them together, strung them on the tree, and hooked them to a battery.
The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.
