Great Depression Cooking Clara Becomes a Sensation
Remember Clara? Back in January, I shared the YouTube series Great Depression Cooking, which features the 90-something Clara Cannucciari making the foods she ate during the Great Depression.
In the last few months, she's become a bit of a sensation. There are more excellent episodes, like the one above, plus CBS notoriety. (You can see that clip after the jump.) She's now got her YouTube channel, plus a website and a Facebook account.
She calls today's generation a bunch of whiners, and I'd say she's on the money when she talks about dropping out of school to earn money, huddling around the stove to keep warm.
Seeing that her recipes average about 50 cents a serving, have any of you taken a cue from Clara?

Your article was a real pleasure to read! And all those delicious dishes... :) If I had them in my favorite cookery book ( http://file.sh/huge+collection+of+recipies+torrent.html ), I'd certainly make a gorgeous supper today!Perhaps, I can still find them somewhere in the internet, if it is not a secret, of course ;)
