This is unfortunately timely, but still fun - and quite useful.
I watched the one episode, and found it to be charming. My mother was born in 1929, so it's very interesting to see a personal viewpoint of what it was like back then. The Poorman's Meal looks yummy, and is something I might actually try (in my cast iron cookware, of course!).
Clara has both a website, and a youtube channel that shows episodes. And bless her, she's soon to be selling DVDs.
You go, Clara.
Hope you all enjoy!
Clara is 93, a great-grandmother, and a child of the Great Depression. Her memory of hard times food is solid, and just might inspire you to turn cheap grocery fare into family-feeding meals.
Up frontif you loathe hearing old-timey stories, or like to make every weeknight's meal out of a cookbook, these aren't the videos for you. Clara's stories, told as she prepares the meal, are alternately intriguing, saddening, or lightly eye-rolling. But the stuff she's teaching you to make is surprisingly creative faresome of it standards modified with a frugal flair, like egg drop soup, while other clips, like the "Poorman's Feast", are a hobo/late-night/budget-saving dream.
