In all of history, no cow is more infamous than Mrs. O'Leary's. On this day in 1871, the Great Chicago Fire began when a fire broke out in the barn behind the home of Patrick and Catherine O'Leary. Legend has it, their cow kicked over a kerosene lamp during milking, setting fire to the O'Leary barn. At least 300 people were dead, 17,450 buildings were destroyed, and 100,000 people were homeless. The fire was one of the most spectacular events of the nineteenth century, and it is recognized as a major milestone in the city's history. Salmon Teriyaki

The delicious, light and fluffy angel food cake is the center of attention on National Angel Food Cake Day which is observed each year on October 10.
Originating in the United States and first becoming popular in the late 19th century, angel food cake was so named because of its airy lightness. It was said to be the “food of the angels”.
Making angel food cake requires whipping egg whites until they are stiff then adding cream of tartar to the mixture to stabilize the egg whites. Additional ingredients are then folded into the egg white mixture.
The cake is then usually baked in an ungreased tube pan leaving a hole in the middle of the cake. The center tube allows the cake batter to rise higher as it clings to all sides of the pan. After baking, the pan is inverted while cooling to prevent the cake from falling in on itself.
Usually, rather than frosting, angel food cakes are topped with a glaze or a sweet fruit sauce and a swirl of whipped cream.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Enjoy one of these recipes.
