One of the first conceptual designs for a carousel was in 500 A.D. in the Byzantine Empire, which depicts baskets, carrying riders, suspended from a central pole. This was an activity that needed excellent horsemanship and skill. In fact, the word carousel comes from the word ‘garosello,’ which is Italian, and the word ‘carosella,’ which is Spanish. It means ‘little battle.’ It was only in the 17th century that carousels became entertainment....However, it was not until the 1840s when Franz Wiesenoffer created the first merry-go-round in the United States in Hessville, Ohio. Unfortunately he did not patent the design and so he’s not officially credited as the creator. And for some reason: Merry-go-rounds tend to turn in a clockwise direction in Europe, and counter-clockwise in North America.

Whether its picking up food or coffee, dropping off the mail, a prescription or the dry cleaning, pulling up to a window is eminently easier than even finding a parking spot. But the whole drive thru concept started at a bank...in 1928, the City Center Bank in Syracuse, New York and 20 years later when fast food restaurants began...that industry said...oh, watch this! Today there are over 211,000 drive thrus in America! Many people think the drive-thru is faster...however it will depend on the type of service, time of day, and where you are located. For example, a long line in the drive-thru may mean no waiting inside.

It is a well-accepted fact that no matter the hardships, sprinkles make everyone’s day just a little better. Sprinkles are used for many things across the world, the most common of which probably is topping ice cream but of course on donuts, cake, or cupcakes! Sprinkles can be dated back to, at least, the 18th century when they were referred to as Nonpareils. The idea of the modern sprinkles dates back to 1913 when Dutch confectionaire, Erven H. de Jong created something by the name of ‘hagelslag' which were intended to be used as a topping for bread and butter, of all things. These tiny confections made their way to America, where they were warmly embraced and given the playful name “jimmies".
