Today's History Lesson...the movies

Sometimes it takes only one movie...just one...to kick start the careers of film actors and directors. Then, the movie itself goes on to become a classic, an American icon. These are the films that truly bring back the memories as you stroll down memory lane revisiting the scenes and listening to the music of the era!

Awakenings: Hot Dogs & Ice Cream

Awakenings: Hot Dogs & Ice Cream | Human Interest | Scoop.it

"It's summertime! Hot dogs and ice cream are at the top of the list...hot dogs being ideal for a quick lunch or even at supper time demanding very little preparation time. Of course, the hot dogs are center stage on the grill or can be boiled, broiled, even fried! As that item on the menu is completed, the ice cream always brings on additional curtain calls and a standing ovation, especially when it happens to be homemade vanilla. So, are you ready to doubly celebrate with two of America's favorites?

July 23 is...
National Hot Dog Day and National Vanilla Ice Cream Day

Today's History Lesson

The history lesson for today steps back in time to one of the first automobiles, not the very first but the first of its kind. While today's founding does not carry the Made in America label, it certainly had a impact on America still present in the 21st century. As styles and technology evolved, the 'classic' became the 'new' but if you want a 'fun' new Beetle, buy the 'classic'!
