(fyi: this is Laura)
Just learning some things on the internet today
) Here's something you probably don't know about Margaret Thatcher -
She graduated with a second-class degree and worked as a research chemist for British Xylonite and then J. Lyons and Co., where she helped develop methods for preserving ice cream. She was a member of the team that developed the first soft frozen ice cream.
And here's something I think we should all remember for next year
In 1984, President Ronald Reagan designated July as National Ice Cream Month in the United States, and the third Sunday of the month as National Ice Cream Day.

Ahhh....Conservatives and Ice Cream! Go so well together don't they? Two of God's greatest inventions.
haha!
oooooh laura, next year we are SO getting the entire Ronald Reagan Fan Club together to celebrate that....how fabulous
I thought this was a very important thing to post. Thank you, Laura, for teaching us the important history of this country. It is a shame that this Day of Ice Cream is not know to more Americans. It is not even on our calenders! Some things in this country are just pathetic....quite pathetic.
