Breakfast with Mom

Send us a textHello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom!  This is our 4th and final episode for our Pink Ladies series.  Today I want to tell you about a lesser known Lady Pink named Elizabeth H Baker.  It is not known when Elizabeth H. Baker was born the exact date and location of her birth remain uncertain. She was raised in a period when women’s roles were often confined to the domestic sphere, but she defied these limitations through her education and her determination to make a difference in society. Baker pursued higher education at a time when women’s access to academic institutions was limited. She attended a leading women’s college, where she developed an early passion for social reform and the empowerment of women.Resources:https://www.cowgirlmagazine.com/wild-women-wednesday-elizabeth-baker/https://pinkerton.com/our-insights/blog/the-lady-pinks-celebrating-womens-contributions-to-pinkertons-legacyhttps://chrisenss.com/operatives-elizabeth-baker-mary-touvestre/https://mygwork.com/news/international-womens-history-month-elizabeth-h-bakerhttps://chrisenss.com/operatives-elizabeth-baker-mary-touvestre/Thanksgiving Stories: https://www.agiftofhappiness.com/blog/from-awkward-to-hilarious-our-favorite-funny-thanksgiving-stories?srsltid=AfmBOoqzRSemxs9rRpBHo3CfQqiUDhUh1eKjguxB4tOinMF2oqLQeQHEAll the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/

Send us a textHello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom!  This is part 3 of our Pink Ladies series.  Mary Louvestre was an African-American Union spy in Norfolk, Virginia, during the United States Civil War. She delivered details of plans for the conversion of the wrecked USS Merrimack to an ironclad that would be named the CSS Virginia and which represented a great advance in Confederate naval capabilities.  While she was not an official Pinkerton Lady, I feel she did the work of a Pink Lady and deserves to be highlighted in this series.Resources:https://pinkerton.com/our-insights/blog/the-lady-pinks-celebrating-womens-contributions-to-pinkertons-legacyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Louvestrehttps://www.civilwar.com/history/significant-people-of-the-war/union-women/278058-mary-louvestre.htmlhttps://www.marinersmuseum.org/2017/03/featured-union-spy/https://blackandeducation.org/stories/2017/8/27/mary-touvestre-civil-war-intelligenceInstead of our “Say What?!” segment I thought I would share a recipe I found interesting and a good side dish for any Thanksgiving table;https://www.countryliving.com/food-drinks/a61974851/harvest-salad-pickled-pomegranate-seeds-recipe/All the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/

Send us a textHello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom!The history of diving girls is a fascinating chapter in the world of entertainment and athleticism, dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Diving girls, also known as "high divers" or "swan divers," were performers who specialized in diving from great heights into small bodies of water, often while riding horses or performing acrobatics.The practice gained popularity in the context of Wild West shows and traveling circuses in the United States during the late 1800s and early 1900s. These shows, which featured a blend of Western-themed entertainment, stunt performances, and feats of skill, captivated audiences across the country. Diving girls added an element of daring and spectacle to these shows, often performing alongside cowboys, sharpshooters, and other skilled performers.Resources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonora_Webster_Carverhttps://www.thespectrum.com/story/sports/mesquite/2021/04/18/eighth-pole-sonora-webster-carver-fearless-horse-diving-girl/7281572002/https://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/sonora-webster-carver-daredevil-horse-diver-gygmrx/15128/https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/7907392/sonora_evelyn-carverhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_horseSay What:https://www.huffpost.com/entry/bc-eu-sweden-shipwreck-champagne_n_66b39148e4b042ee2ccfb989All the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/

Send us a textHello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom!Today I want to tell you about Gustav Klimt, and the story of his stolen art.  Gustav was an Austrian symbolist painter and one of the most prominent figures in the Vienna Secession movement. Born on July 14, 1862, in Baumgarten, near Vienna, Austria, Gustav demonstrated artistic talent from a young age. He studied at the Vienna School of Arts and Crafts, where he was trained in architectural painting and decorative arts.One of Gustav's most famous paintings, "Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I," was at the center of one of the most notable art thefts and restitution cases in history. The Portrait is an oil painting on canvas, with gold leaf.  The painting was commissioned by Ferdinand Bloch-Bauer, a wealthy industrialist and Adele Bloch-Bauer's husband; the painting was completed sometime in 1907.During World War II, when Austria was occupied by Nazi Germany, the painting, along with other valuable artworks, was seized from the Bloch-Bauer family by the Nazis. After the war, the painting ended up in the possession of the Austrian government. It was displayed in the Austrian Gallery Belvedere in Vienna for many years.Resources:https://www.neuegalerie.org/collection/artist-profiles/gustav-klimthttps://www.britannica.com/biography/Gustav-Klimthttps://www.gustav-klimt.com/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gustav_Klimthttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portrait_of_Adele_Bloch-Bauer_Ihttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adele_Bloch-Bauerhttps://jwa.org/encyclopedia/article/bloch-bauer-adelehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Altmannhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woman_in_Gold_(film)Say What?!:https://www.npr.org/2024/05/03/1248880788/wally-alligator-missing-georgiaAll the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/Festival link: https://truecrimepodcastfestival.com/tickets/Promo Code: BREAKFAST

On April 15, 1912, after striking an iceberg, Titanic broke apart and sank to the bottom of the ocean, taking with it the lives of more than 1,500 passengers and crew.  On board were some of the world’s richest people, JP Morgan, John Jacob Astor IV, Margaret Brown and Isidor Straus, co-owner of Macy's, and his wife, Ida just to name a few.  I will not be telling you about them, instead I wanted to highlight a party of 4 women traveling together in cabins B-3, B-5 and E-10.  These women would survive on lifeboat 2.Resources:https://titanic.fandom.com/wiki/Elisabeth_Walton_Allenhttps://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/elisabeth-walton-allen.htmlhttps://titanic.fandom.com/wiki/Emilie_Kreuchenhttps://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/emilie-kreuchen.htmlhttps://titanic.fandom.com/wiki/Elisabeth_Walton_Roberthttps://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/elisabeth-walton-robert.htmlhttps://titanic.fandom.com/wiki/Georgette_Alexandra_Madillhttps://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-survivor/georgette-madill.htmlhttps://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic/lifeboats/lifeboat-2/All the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/Festival link: https://truecrimepodcastfestival.com/tickets/Promo Code: BREAKFAST
