Did you know that the girl’s scout’s organization is one hundred and four years old? Julliette “Daisy” Gordon invited 18 girls in Savannah, Georgia, on March 12, 1912, to attend the first Girl Scout meeting. See the History here.

In 1917 girls and their mothers started baking cookies to help raise money for the troop’s activities. In 1922 Florence E. Neil came up with a cookie recipe and the suggested price to sell the cookies were twenty-five to thirty cents a dozen.

On March 16, 1950, Congress chartered Girl Scouts of America and as of today over 59 million women in America have been a girl scout when they were a child. Read more about that here

It is National Cheeseburger Day and we have found a great article over at GoBankingRates.com offering  places that are giving free, cheap to discounts to celebrate this day.

Some say the cheeseburger was created in 1924 by by Lionel Sternberger, age16, who added a piece of American cheese to a cooking hamburger at his fathers restaurant in Pasadena, California. Both father and son liked it  and named it the “Cheese Hamburger”.

Charles Kaelin who owned a restaurant in Louisville, Kentucky called Kaelin’s, claims he invented the first Cheeseburger in 1934. He claims he wanted to add a new tang to the hamburger and put a “cheese topped burger” on his menu, also claiming to be the birthplace of the cheeseburger.

In 1935 the name “Cheeseburger” was trademarked by Louis Ballast of the Humpty Dumpty Driving-In at Denver, Colorado.

While there are claims of who created this burger wonder, it is still one of America’s favorite foods and shipped all over the world.
