been there, done that Kaywoodie
Sam,
My poor mom was not the best of cooks. But what she did cook was good and we didn’t starve. When she was growing up, they just didn’t have the variety of different things. Very small basic garden. Chickens. Wild game was occasional squirrel or rabbit. Deer we’re nonexistent.
Both my boys have degrees in anthropology. They laughingly say that if you wanna eat real depression era cooking, go to Mimi’s house!
They still laugh about her and her Karo syrup!!!
Yesterday was her birthday. She woulda been 92.
