I came across the most unique videos of an elderly woman, Clara, who was at the time, in her mid-to-late 90s. She grew up in The Depression. In the video's I'm going to post, Clara talks about having Dandelions for supper, and she tells you little bits about her life back then, like she worked at the Hostess Twinkie factory. Clara is Italian and she's got tons of videos about all kinds of things people used to make to eat, back during the great Depression.

She's a beautiful soul. And her little stories about yesteryear are just precious.

I have thousands of packages of Ramen noodles...I just wish they weren't all "chickenesque flavour".
Don't worry, I do toss the flavour packets and then I make "Ramen Bolognese".

If this thing lasts you'll be sitting on a gold mine. People here are already selling it at super jacked up inflationary prices, I can't imagine in another three months.

A nice size piece of wild salmon I had frozen in the freezer. Coupled with a baked potato and brussel sprouts steamed. Ice tea with lots of lemon.

I guess that depends on whether she really knows how to make ramen soup. Did she add other things to the stuff that comes in the package? Diced cooked meat, vegetables, a three-minute egg? How did it turn out?

Tonight the oldest child is cooking. Dinner is fish sticks (these are actually breaded fish tenders and really good), tater tots, and roasted veggies.

Last night was my turn, we had apple pork roast with carrots, potatoes, and onions.

I dunno cause first I have to learn how to hunt, use a rifle then go shoot a moose.
I live in a big urban area but maybe I can bag a few squirrels for the freezer.
