Now this is interesting! I have a cookbook of recipes from schoolkid's parents in the Fredericksburg Texas. It contains recipes from 1916 to 1996. Fredericksburg had a very heavy German population back in the very early days, and even now keeps a lot of its German traditions.
One that's always intrigued me was a recipe for Milchsuppe from a Mrs. Striegler in 1916. After watching this video I went back to the cookbook and looked over the recipe and sure enough it's roughly the same thing! Mrs. Henke has another version from 1916 as well that includes rice and replaces cinnamon with nutmeg to make a kind of kheer-ish rice pudding.
Decided not to cook this weekend as I had lots of leftovers from last week (I made 5 days of food, for a four day week, and then the weekend food I bought didn't get eaten), so I'm pushing that off to this upcoming weekend.
I do worry that some of the ingredients I had to get will go bad, but we'll see how that looks on Friday afternoon.
Probably gonna make a personal batch of cinnamon rolls, too, for freezing. :)
I once launched a paper airplane off the Speakeasy patio, 7 stories up. It flew FOREVER. This was the design I used: http://www.zurqui.co.cr/crinfocus/paper/airplane.html
Looking for people who know something about early computing, especially in the Netherlands. Please boost and help me solve the mystery of this custom made plate that used to belong to my grandfather Bram Jan Loopstra, one of the pioneers of Dutch computing. What do the pictures mean? #computing #history (EDIT: Wow, thanks for the overwhelming response! You may have to check the post on my instance to see all the MANY helpful reactions.)

Turns out I really need to work on the website a little more than I thought. I did finish all the Star Trek stuff (Minus Redskirts) and Closetspace stuff. But the A Wish for Wings stuff hasn't even been started. And there's at least one large graphic I still need to make. So maybe tomorrow. Or the day after. But I'm working on it!
@dolari it's at desperate times like these when a great nation calls upon its mightiest defenders, eh
