Great Depression Cooking website

Saw this just this morning. I thought our group would find it interesting. Clara's food memories from the Great Depression and cooking show.

I tried the above link at 8:45 pm tonight. The link did not work.

This link is for the first of Clara's youtube videos... and the rest are there as well.

She's amazing for 92!
Bread and butter or cookies with coffee for breakfast. Isn't that what we consider continental now?
I wonder what dishes our era will come up with to weather this worsening economic crisis.

Clara's family is very lucky to still have her around and very smart to capture her memories. My dad used to make memory meals like this for us.

My paternal grandmother, who would have been 109 this past February 12, used to make lots of these meals. Her version of the poorman's meal included whatever root vegetable they had from the garden, if they didn't have potatoes. Also, my grandpap bartered for a friend's homemade sausages.
