Mar 27, 1912: The First Japanese Cherry Blossom Trees Are Planted in the U.S.

On this day in 1912, the first two Japanese cherry blossom trees were successfully planted by First Lady Helen Taft and Viscountess Chinda on the Tidal Basin in Washington, D.C. Japanese Mayor Yukio Ozaki of Tokyo gave the U.S. over 3000 trees to demonstrate the growing relationship between the U.S. and Japan.

Every spring, Washington D.C. commemorates the initial planting through the National Cherry Blossom Festival. 

As we wait for this year’s blooming period, treat yourself to this delicious spring recipe!

Strike, protests hit Egypt's Port Said for 3rd day →

Morsi won’t have an easy ride in office. The country is fed up and charged with passion and rage. They want to transform their dear homeland into a place of freedom, justice and pride. Their actions today are encouraged by outside supporters like me because I believe in their cause. Change needs to be demanded and oftentimes forced in order to make the situation better.
