Depression Cooking with Clara

I was delighted to find Clara's Depression Era Cooking videos on YouTube. My husband sent me the link after seeing Barilla link to it on their Facebook page. (What did we do before social media?)



Seeing this video reminded me of my grandmothers. Just the voice, the wrinkled hands, and hearing the old stories and how they "made do".

(When he first sent me the link I thought it was some new video that was going to teach recipes that would ward off mental depression but I was wrong! I was thrilled to see they are old time recipes with an old timer rather than some new fangled food fad cure-all thing.)
