Great Depression Cooking

I found a video series hosted by a charming older woman who lived and ate through the Great Depression.  She's got quite a few videos where she makes and talks about the food she and her family ate through those tough years.


The depression had been over for more than a decade by the time the cookbook came out, but doubtless the values and experiences of that terrible decade would have informed the Ladies who contributed their recipes.  It's fun to listen to Clara and her stories while she cooks.  Enjoy.  I think Ill pass on Poorman's Meal though.  Hot dogs are not my idea of good food.  I suppose when it ultimately comes down to it, you do what you have to do.

I have another food post in the works, but classes, homework, and the sickness that just don't seem to be leaving this house are putting marshmallow pie on the back burner.  I'll probably have it up within the week.
