Ferguson unrest underscores progress
Dec. 3, 2014Holidays are treasured in part because they are times, sanctioned by God or the government, for us to reunite with distant and not-so-distant relatives.

The history and art of recipes played on the radio
By Keri | Dec. 3, 2014The sharing of recipes is not only through cookbooks, television and the web but also on the radio. Contemporary radio shows, such as American Public Media’s “The Splendid Table” hosted by Lynne Rossetto Kasper, have been continuing the art of recipe telling on the airwaves since the early 20th century. In fact, the glory days of radio homemaking began in the 1920s, increased in popularity during the Depression years and lasted up until the 1960s when television took the scene. Providing a community for the radio homemaker were women such as Evelyn Corrie Birkby, of Sidney, Iowa, who chatted about domestic life, sharing best recipes and cooking tricks.
