It is National Chocolate chip Cookie Day. In nineteen thirty eight,

9
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:43.960
Ruth Wakefield, she was baking at the toll House in

10
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:47.600
in Whitman, Massachusetts. Now she wanted to bake some chocolate cookies,

11
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:50.399
but she ran out of baker's chocolate, so she crumbled

12
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:53.079
up a chocolate candy bar and dumped it in with

13
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:55.759
a cookie dough. She thought it all this melt together. Well,

14
00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:57.960
she was wrong. She just had cookies with chunks of

15
00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:01.960
chocolate in them. Thankfully for us, chocolate chip cookie was invented.

16
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:04.560

I see true so green, I've seen him blue following

70
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:45.839

Most known for playing the trumpet, but he actually played

75
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.319
a lot of different instruments, and then he had that distinctive, deep,

76
00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:06.480
gravelly voice, very famous for a scat singing. He married

77
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:08.560
his fourth wife in nineteen forty two, and they were

78
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:10.560
together until he died from a heart attack in nineteen

79
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.240

80
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:15.199

81
00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:15.639
Now.

00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:21.839
had taken him in off the streets when he was

85
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:23.839
seven years old. They even gave him the money to

86
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:26.439
buy his very first instrument, a clarinet.

87
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:27.839
Why's the beef?

88
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:30.279

89
00:05:30.399 --> 00:05:33.240
