Coming home Lost Silent movies

Courtesy of the National Film Preservation Foundation
Silent film comedian Mabel Normand directed and starred in the 1914 film Won in a Closet. It is the first surviving film she is known to have directed.
After being lost for more than 80 years, it looks like dozens of American silent movies will finally be coming home — from New Zealand.

Recipe
Lickety-Split Lemon Cream IcingYields 1 cup icing or enough for 12 cupcakes/scones

2 3/4 tablespoons butter

4 tablespoons lemon juice

2 tablespoons lemon zest

2 cups confectioner's sugar

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add in lemon juice and zest and stir to combine. Pour in powdered sugar and continue stirring over low heat. It should take 30 seconds to come together as a pourable icing, if you'd like something thicker, continue to stir and heat it — thinner, add a little more lemon juice or melted butter.This icing forms a perfect top crust that hardens over, so be ready to ice as soon as things come together. Don't make this while your cupcakes are in the oven; start when things have come out and are already cool.
