I went ahead and created a version of this room on frenf.it (http://www.frenf.it/earlyad...) -- I think I've found some of my favorite recipes, or recipe ideas from this group :)

hennyproud: happy 100th birthday, billie holiday // april 7, 1915 - july 17, 1959 // “no two people on earth are alike, and it’s got to be that way in music or it isn’t music.” “Behind me, Billie was on her last song.

So, this Easter I learned a bunch of new things about my paternal grandmother and her family. They were one of the very first of the German settlers in Spokane, and mentioned in the paper as the first family in the city to have a real Christmas tree. I knew my uncle Otto had been kicked out of the US for illegally entering... twice.
I didn't know that he spent time in federal prison after the second time. On the third try he made it in (legally) and then met my great aunt. Their son, my dad's cousin Johnny, apparently brought his favorite hooker to Thanksgiving dinner one year. - Jennifer Dittrich

My grandmother had three sisters - Anita, Emma (who went by Emmy) and Olga. Everyone, including Olga, hated her name, so she just went by "G." Well, maybe not hated, but certainly weren't super-fond of it. - Jennifer Dittrich

Oh, Flickr Favorites import. You are so wacky sometimes, but I'll miss you too.
The last few years Flickr imports haven't worked at all. (Edit: for me.) - Stephan Planken

Stephen - are most of your pictures set to something other than public? I noticed it stopped bringing those in around the time the auto-import stopped working. - Jennifer Dittrich

If you want to place the responsibility for ISIS on Islam, that’s fine with me– as long as you also credit Islam for the people who are fighting ISIS. For while it is true that ISIS are Muslims, it’s also true that so are the tens of thousands who are battling them, and the tens of thousands of victims of ISIS. They’re all Muslim too. - http://jenn2d2.tumblr.com/post...

Du Bois is perhaps the greatest and most under-read African-American voice of the 20th century. What he offers here is an analysis of race in the United States that remains as relevant now, more than a hundred years hence, as when it was first written in 1903. His prescription to remedying the racial divide and gap in achievement between... - http://jenn2d2.tumblr.com/post...

In some places, water tables have dropped 50 feet or more in just a few years. With less underground water to buoy it, the land surface is sinking as much as a foot a year in spots, causing roads to buckle and bridges to crack. Shallow wells have run dry, depriving several poor communities of water. Scientists say some of the underground... - http://jenn2d2.tumblr.com/post...
