I like to think she's at the gates of heaven with cookies for everyone entering.....
Beautiful thought! I can see her now!
Real Nice thought you have a good heart
I’m expecting a baked apple myself
@@deletedleaf2688 😂
Johnny, if Ms. Clara isn't at the Pearly Gates, I don't want to be there myself.
I’m an atheist, but even I believe that this glorious woman is in heaven
Oh, how I wish heaven existed for the sake of people like her
c l just accept Christ into your heart, trust in him and you’re saved. His yolk is easy and his burden is light
@c l He already has, his arms are open. Now you just need to forgive yourself
c l He will forgive all of us if we believe in Him. He payed it all and we just need to be thankful:)
Her wisdom will live on. 😢
I have tears welling in my eyes. I bet she never would’ve thought her tips would be helping others in a pandemic in the year 2020.
I bet she would 🥰 she was wise and magnificent beyond her considerable years
I was watching her videos a few years ago when I discovered this channel. I’m so glad I came back and saw this. Between her and my MIL. Wonderful women and I have acquired great advice.
AS W no she’s not....
@@rebeccatatum7692 gosh you're right. :(
True
She said on the tomato sauce episode that she knew God put her here for a reason, she just didn't know what it was. This was the reason.. to show a social media dependant generation how to survive in hard times. Thank so much for blessing the world with the opportunity to learn from such a wonderful woman. May her light shine forever.
Amen you gave us an open window to your comment! God is the gift of life😇😇take care ok
Hallelujah.. my mom was born in 1925.. and her mom my Wonderful Gramma in 1901.. they went through the Depression.. I still remember the stories They told of RECIEVING tickets to buy only a certain amount of flour.. Sugar.. salt etc.. I was born at the end of 1945... I too seen some ruff times Growing up.. food.. clothes shoes...etc.. we were poor..we got Meat for dinner ONLY ON SUNDAY.. Unless my stepdad killed wild game and brought it to her.. rabbit.. Squirrel's.. frog's ( for frog legs). Eel.. fish.. pheasant.. Deer... So because of our Garden ..& neighbors my mom put 3 meals aday on the table.. we wasted nothing.. left overs were heated up and a new item added to make a new meal.. and you ate what was cooked.. what you put on your plate.. if you didn't eat it.. your plate went in the refrigerator for the next day for you to eat... Like I said we were poor..we wasted nothing... .. my mom's Old Clothes became my new clothes and my old clothes became my sister's new clothes.. my Mom even used her old clothes to make shirts for my brother.... ..
@@nancysparks8168 That is all so true. She reminds me of my Mother and her growing up during the Depression. They never wasted any food. Clothes were worn over and over. And patched. When they absolutely couldn't be worn any more, they were used for cleaning rags.
Bless this lovely lady and her Grandson who taped her, and is now reposting the videos.
Did she really say that?
@@gabrielkawa3477 yes. Its on the tomato sauce episode
I was *just* thinking to myself “What would Clara do?”
She would ne happy and want us to be.
That’s why I came to her vids; her words are wise in today’s times!
Me to.
She would be calm and make a meal! Just love watching her. I aspire to have her grace
msubasii omg me too!
The world needs her wisdom more than ever, now.
Yep because we are going into another depression but not a big one
Oh, just plain common sense.
@caleb yes sadly
BME Studios I’ve heard it’s going to be bigger.
Big time. She brings joy even in tuff times
my gran used to say back in the 70's, if you sleep in a bed with a roof over your head, clothes on your back and food in your belly, you're doin' alright. you can get by without all that other stuff, cars and movies and parties, Read A Book ! well for a few weeks during COVID19 we can all do it gran's way and make it out the other end.
Amen!
I remember my grandparents telling me that too. We were the lucky ones to have these beautiful & wise people in our lives. 🙏❤
So true, I hope all this what’s going on makes people more appreciative.
Years ago they didn’t have the technology that we have, when they were separated they couldn’t just pick up the phone next to them . At least we can FaceTime and talk on the phone to our loved ones. I hope it makes people stronger and makes them not depend on takeaways and learn how to cook ect.
God bless her soul, your gran was a wise woman
Absolutely,we are spoiled these days.We have computers,food,freedom so much freedom.Maybe coronavirus will stop us for a while and make us realize what we are losing...
Y’all notice how this videos start appearing in our recommended right when the coronavirus is making the stock market fall...
And out of the blue. I've never searched for this or any similar topic on youtube. When it showed up I thought maybe google tracked my search for cottonseed oil on Google Scholar. Otherwise ?
UA-cam: y’all gonna need this info for the second great depression bout to happen
Could be the tags on this video
Kayla 01 it’s a one week old video
The video is a week old
Miss you Clara. Your generation is desperately needed today. We were lucky to have you in our lives via youtube, and your grandsons efforts. We learned so much from what you shared. They don’t make them like you anymore. The next generation might just become the 2nd of the ‘Greatest Generation’. I’m germinating, and planting out potato’s, bell peppers, peas, tomatoes, and building my hen house god willing. Can’t wait to share my harvest with family and neighbors. Going back and prioritizing through hard times to come, a more simple sustainable localized way of life.
Heathercliff .....Amen, it’s how I live !!
Beautifully put. Brought tears to my eyes ❤️
You're a good example to the younger members of your family. I wish you success with your garden, God bless.
Thanks and that's real important for you...keep up your good job ❤
bonsaipal Thank you :)
I misheard "the second tip was to have a garden" as "have a gun" and I was like "steady on, Clara".
SomeInterestingName - both of those are EXCELLENT ideas!
SomeInterestingName LMAO
lmao
Same bro
Mafia life
My grand ma is 101 . She lived through the depression. Grew up on a homestead in montana . They didnt even know there was a depression. They were 100% self sufficient. Went to town only a few times a year. She grew up to be a highly successful rancher and built a huge cattle ranch. But always warned that the depression would come back!
Having visited Montana, I was impressed by your spirit. I've no doubt you're thriving through this!
Much like my family. Done well during the depression. So well that apparently they didn't even know there was one until they went to school and saw how the other kids were....
My grandpa would be 101 this year. He grew up on a farm in Kansas and used to say that the depression didn't change his life much but he knew it would have been catastrophic for his family had they lived in the city and had lost their jobs.
Yes I've helped take care of many people who grew up on farms in the Depression, and they were self sufficient and hardly noticed there was a Depression
@@catchinghorses You
My family is not with me during this lockdown. I'm by myself in a foreign country: Italy. But I have God! I've never been so joyful and peaceful in my life! He is always with me when I need Him most, and he keeps blessing me!! Praise Jesus!! 💕
Oh my God... I cried when I saw Clara reappear in my timeline after all these years. Thank you for sharing this.
@David Bock. Crying, too! What a sweet soul, Clara...she is missed!
I just about did, too! This channel is just one of those you’ll never forget
ME TOO 😥
Same!
Me too 😢 So happy to see her again 😁
Clara’s stories AND recipes kept me going through 2009-2011. I still eat a dandelion salad every spring so I never forget. Her lessons are invaluable, and her strength is timeless.
That's so lovely
I loved Dandelion salad. I was introduced to it by my depression era grandparents (I am 63). Their entire back yard was a garden, the lawn part was dandelions. Today we kill them as weeds.
Olive Oil, Vinegar, Salt, Pepper was all you needed. You could get away with just Olive Oil as a dressing.
@@charlesbaldo what's Dandelion salad ?
@@charlesbaldo VERY GOOD for cleaning your liver ; )
@@eyeYQ2 Don't forget tasty too. Lots of flavor, sure beats iceberg lettuce
Whos here for surviving the covid depression of 2020 ?
That was no depression, how could you ever compare lack of toilet paper to people literally not having food and losing their homes and having to literally give their children to more wealthy people in hope that they could survive?
I felt so comfortable when she was talking. I loved how comforting she and her advice was to me.
I love the sound of her voice. It reminds me of how my grandmother spoke. :) crackling old flame speaking in a cold dark night.
Her voice still is comforting even though she is no longer Here.
Claire had that soothing calm in her voice and sweet demeanor. I could listen to her talk forever. I watch her cooking videos mostly to hear her stories and her cute remarks!😁 What a lovely treasure was Miss Claire.💟
Me too!
i learned alot from this woman. poor people thing. real talk, real survival.
It is great she is immortalized online, to help us. Over a year ago, my grandmother passed at almost 101 years. The Great Depression was hard, we can learn a lot from how people did then.
We are going to need these tips in the coming days. She has given a great gift and the legacy of a hero.
KarmicVibez wonderful lady. Thank you for sharing her wisdom with us. Thank you and may she Rest In Peace.
🌲🌝☘️
She was blessed not poor
@@kathiewarren2825 relax woman, i was calling my self poor. is y this video caught my eye.
Clara would have known EXACTLY what to do in a situation like this. God rest her soul ❤️❤️
People used to look up to the elders like the "wise old owl" they knew things been there done that, it is time we listen now.
Her "Good Luck" at the end is hitting me harder than I thought. . . i can only imagine what Clara would've thought about what we're going thru rn in the year 2020 ♥
Wait. 2023 is coming.
@@ge-ys1uz do you not see that this comment was 2 years ago lmao two years ago was 2020.
It seems to be getting worse thanks to politics filling their pockets and bills passed to help them not us.
@@velvetwaters2416 Lol
@@pamelalagerquist1935 I hear you out
Found this channel just going through rabbit holes of UA-cam and when I realized she had passed I literally bawled, anyone relate?
You feel like you actually lost your own grandmother!
I found her in 2015 a few months too late. Broke my heart, I had binged all the recommended videos before I checked her channel. Really did feel like losing a grandma.
Yes me too just know shes a sweet lady to help us
Sushiplug I did the same thing and this video also brought me to tears
still crying right now. using up all my stockpiled tissues.
I needed this video. This pandemic is leaving me feeling lost and hopeless, but her words bring me a lot of comfort.
Cyber hug. You are not alone.
It’s gonna be okay.
Keep the FAITH!!
It's looking like we're gonna have a repeat of the Great Depression because our governments are too stupid to realize that freezing the economy for the sake of stopping a virus with a
@@bigboineptune9567 There's definitely more to this diabolical story...
In this really difficult time, we should have Grandma Clara's mindset and take care of each other. ❤️⌚😔💜
We need to be grateful for the things we have that she didn’t have for most of her life.
i'm sitting here about to cry. Even after her death, she still has wisdom to impart during such unprecedented times.
Thank you for letting us continue to celebrate and cherish such a wonderful person.
"about" to cry, I'm sobbing
I'm bawling. Suddenly I realized that the things that mattered a couple of weeks ago, never mattered at all. We've all fallen on our knees.
@@shoptilyoudrop ♥️
Adrian Alonzo " when did she die ? "
Y’all this was uploaded only 6 days ago.. I think she’s alive still- but idk..
We are going to need this in 2020
And beyond!
We will all get through this. But this time is definitely showing us how comfortable life has become. How unused to dealing with real hardship. And that’s just in general. Obviously that does not apply to everyone, everywhere.
stop trying to get likes. that's pathetic you know. well maybe you don't know..
Im here because there's barely any food in all of our local grocery stores
Boris Sheen but they aren’t trying for likes
I grew up dirt poor in the rural South. I am 44. Her tips are spot on. People still get by like this all the time. I am glad others have the benefit of her wisdom on UA-cam
I no longer poor or live in Louisiana, but I still live by these ideas.
This message really will ring soon
Clara would have gone through this with wise wisdom and a smile. She’s made of the toughest stuff and magic dust ⭐️⭐️⭐️ She was have laughed at the the toilet roll hoarding !!!
Oh yes😁 well said
True I was told as a kid they used a rag in that time. My grandparents & neighbors told me incredible depression stories. I been watching Clara for years amazing woman.
I hear yuh,gee,maybe she has a video on what to use when youre outa toilet paper!!!!!thing about it is,not ever once did i freakout if i were to runout of t.p! Its food my dears to be worried about,thus,if you run out use:kleenex,paper towels,napkins,rags,or coffee filters,after you run outa that,take a shower,ever heard about a washrag&water?gesus folks,come on....
MJ MK amen!!!
Cupcake4me Clara would be laughing at the fools hoarding toilet paper !
She was a precious lady.
No one was self absorbed like we are today. Very simple life back then.
If Clara only knew how much her words mean to us today,Dec. of 2020. Uncertainty, unrest. We need to just be thankful for the simple things,food and family.💗
I used to watch her videos 10 years ago and my mom's side were Sicilians who went thru the Depression. I loved Clara. Miss her. Miss my grandmother so much. Special people who had so many stories. And boy could my grandmother cook!
LimitlessThinker
My great grandmother was born to two Italians from Naples. When I was either in middle school or high school (I forget), I did an ancestry report for class. I asked her “Grandma, are we from Naples or Sicily - I forget.” I’ll never forget her response, because I’d never seen such a look of horror and shock (and basically offensive disgust) from her lol.
She turned around and stared right into my soul and said slowly and clearly, “WE ARE FROM NAPLES AND DON’T YOU EVER FORGET IT!!” I didn’t; that’s for sure! She was the most wonderful relative in my whole family and was always jovial and cracking jokes - that was the most serious I’d ever seen her.
I initially couldn’t understand why she came off as being offended for my simple request for clarification, but later on I figured it out: there was quite the difference in the peoples and culture from central Italy and the southern island of Sicily. For the most part, Sicilians were generally much darker from having been more affected by breeding with Africans in their history, to the point that northern and central ltaIians thought of them as basically bIack and not related haha.
I bet your Nonna could cook! If you haven't you should check out Buono a Petiti. Gina Is an older Sicilian lady and still has a very heavy Italian accent. I absolutely adore her! The first video I watched of her she was making dough in a large tote with about 20 POUNDS of flour!! She never even broke a sweat and at one point her grandson (who is the videographer)if she was having a hard time and she says 'Ahhhh it's not so hard' and THAT is why you don't mess with an Italian Momma/Nonna! She has the strength in her forearms to backhand you across a room if you backtalk her! LOL
LimitlessThinker I’m full blooded Italian and I miss all of the cooking my family did. Homemade pasta, pasta sauce (though some call it gravy I learned) simmering for up to 3 days on the stove top, big meatballs, ravioli, and so much more. Though I was born in the U.S. I’m very blessed to be raised with a lot of Italian traditions.
I miss your grandmother so much. She reminds me of mine. They were the same age- same greatest generation. May she be watching over and protecting you.
Amen
I watch her all the time cuz she is just like my grandmas too. I try to cook like her but I'm not that creative. I should have been paying more attention to my grandmother
I whole heartedly believe that this woman is continuing to help those who couldn't afford to stock up for the covid19 lock down through her recipes and advice. I have nothing but respect for her ❤️
She mumbles a lot though, kinda annoying to listen to.
@@samuraidoggy it's part of the charm
She gives me a sense of calm and reasoning. Such a beautiful wise woman. May God bless her soul. The Grandma I needed to hear today.
Clara would have been THE voice of reason is this current crazy world. Love her and miss her.
My grandmothers name was Clara. She was a great cook too. I miss her and I miss you too Ms. Clara. Thank you to Christopher for keeping her channel alive. Can you do a bloopers video? I'll bet she had a great sense of humor.
I love her. She's so sweet. May she rest in peace, she'll never be forgotten.
What a blessing she is....greatest generation!! I miss my grandparents dearly.
“Good luck.” Her smile at the end is so wholesome! Rest In Peace Clara, you will forever be missed.
Miss clara generation is the ones that taught me when i was growing up, my baby boomer mother was a lazy ass but im glad my grandmother was a great cook and made all her own clothes. Never ever wore makeup or shaved her legs was her natural self never smoked did drugs or got drunk. She was born in 1907 died aged 95 no women like her around no more and she was strong and fit. Said never complain about anything and work hard in all you do. Her other moto was if you make a mistake learn from it dont repeat it and release and move on. Rest in peace clara and her generation glad they not here to see whats going on today😢
Heavenly auntie ange my grandma was born 1906 lol
she sounds wonderful! May she Rest In Peace🙏💕
I wish the Greatest Generation were still around, it seems like they were the last generation with any damn sense.
Baby boomer lol. Be grateful for everything, don't cut people out or be inconsiderate to the ones who created you. Baby boomer... lol...
Thank you for sharing this Heavenly Auntie. Two solid bits of advice for so many who hadn't the privilege of learning from their grandmothers, or from that generation.
May your heart and mind have eternal rest in the beautiful heaven that most of us wish to get in but only some will reach. With much much love, A kind stranger ❤️
My grandma , who raised her family in the depression , would always say, not eat too much bread !, no tea , and when we left her house at the end of the day after dinner , she would have a metal cabinet , in it she would have the ,”junks”, she called it , the candy and chocolate , she would laugh , saying the kids like it , but in serious face say , Not too much junks ! Lol My grandparents had a big garden and grew all kinds of veggies and figs. They did not go to the gym , my grandpa lived into late 80’s my grandma over 90. They must of knew something !
Lisa Lovely LPA do you know the reasoning for the no tea part?
Claire Bear Hmm .... I not know why except it not good for you she believed. I still like my tea ( smile ). As far as I know it is ok to drink. Though , I still not drink a lot of it. LoL
The gardening and general housework probably kept them fit, in addition to eating plenty of vegetables.
Lisa Lovely LPA yes tea is good for you and has lots of health benefits as well. I was just curious if she had a particular reason.
Thanks & take care! ❤️✌🏼
@@lisalovelylpa in the persian ancient and even chinese medicine food are separated in different categories...cold and warm nature. Tea has a cold nature and should be accompanied by warm nature that is cinnamon ..ginger...otherwise having too much cold nature food would destroy little by little your health. I have been in morrocco and i have seen that they spice their fish (cold) with cumin ( warm)...it s a great science ...old persian people prefer herbal teas which are now fashionable like ginger teas...mixture of herbs which obey to the rule of cold and warm nature equilibrium...
So grateful your grandson shared you with the rest of us ❤️
Hearing from you again Clara especially now during such dark times brings a tear to my eye. We miss you.
What we're going thru now, is but a hickup compared to the times Clara experienced. We have much to learn from her and folks of that time. The least of which is the gratitude to have what we have. We will get thru this hickup and hopefully be better because of it. Take some of this surplus time and talk with God. He's listening.
You'd best enjoy today, because it's going to get worse.
I agree with you 100%. Those people.on here comparing what we are going thru now to the depression are completely clueless. Come and talk to me when you don't have hot water or internet.
@@bigboineptune9567 it never got worse. As a matter of fact it never blew up anywhere near what the govt said it would. And we should be thankful for that.
The Great Depression began in 1929 and didn't really end until WWII. There was no where near the amount of assistance that is available today back then. People had only a few changes of clothing and a pair of shoes. We stand in front of our packed closets and moan,"I don't have a thing to wear"! Until a person has a conversation with someone who went through the Great Depression they have no idea how hard it was.
@@loveamerica5725 2023. Mark it.
I watch her videos before she passed away. I miss her. It was like losing my own Grandma. I Love her cookbook. If you haven't purchased it yet, you need to. In this pandemic that we are experiencing in 2020, what if, we lost our internet.
God rest her soul! I miss you, Clara!
I watched her for so long but then found out she had passed away even before I became a fan. I miss this spicy lady! Can’t wait to see this premier as I work from home :)
Because of the inflatian and war going on now, I teared up when she said "good luck" .. Thank you Clara! We will survive
RIP Clara. Holy crap, this kind, unassuming and lovely woman would have been able to save all of our asses at a time like this. "Nothing at Amazon? Bah! Let me show you how it's done. Go sit down and stay out of my way."
we are literally going to need this in a few months when every restaurant closes
riders294 theyyalready well on their way to it
Already happening here. With take-out/delivery still as options.
Yeah, no eating in restaurants anymore in Oregon
Only Americans eat in restaurants everyday, the rest of us out there know how to cook
Rootless Wanders well, not all of us Americans can afford to eat at restaurants that often and for some of us we don’t even want to go out to eat that much. The most for me was Chipotle once, sometimes twice, a week. So the closings havent phased me all that much, but for the people who had jobs there I can’t imagine how much it’s already affecting them and their families. This is a very strange and difficult time for everyone.
Rip clara❤️
We need these videos more than ever today. I feel like God has us all in TIMEOUT. Some of us are being shaken to the core more than others. We are spoiled and have mistreated the Earth for such a long time. I know that great things will come from all of this. In the meantime, it will be rough and who knows for how long. The GD lasted 10 years. We are only in our second week of quarantine in America and we can already feel the weight of it all. The world is fighting together against a biological entity. It won't be easy, but we will win!
Minda TeeGee 🙏♥️✨🙌💯
Truth!
I’ve thought about that.. family life has become so disconnected,maybe this is God’s way of bringing us closer together again. That’s probably not the whole reason this happened of course, but maybe one of them.
The reset button, we all need to make changes.
I agree!!
Amazing lady. She is missed, but I'm so grateful she is immortalized on this channel. Every time I watch one of her videos, I feel so comforted, like I just had a visit with grandma.
Aw! Your Nan is still just the purest thing on the internet. Thank you for sharing her with us. ❤️
Yup, I’m going to need this while quarantined.
She is so wonderful. She will make you feel hopeful. There is life after all this mess.
Just the other day I was telling my husband about Clara and how I felt we were going through some type of depression, and how Clara used to live. This video is just what I needed right now. I too hope someday to have a grandson who loves me as much as you love her❤️. My grandma was much like Clara and there’s not a day that goes by that I look to her life for wisdom and tips on how to live and get by.
Don't expect your grandson to do it; be your best self, be loving, caring, and expect nothing in return. Then it will happen naturaly.
Clara would’ve had so many fans sending her care packages right now❤️
The amazing thing is her tips will help a lot of people this Spring and Summer if folks would just "calm down" and think about what they're doing and how to conserve.
She's in a much better place now...
Maltese Melon. And she is shaking her head at all the craziness going on here....
The ground?
Maltese Melon
I don’t consider being dead a better place.
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 Well we all have our beliefs, and mine includes the existence of paradise or pain after death, and as from what we've seen in her videos, I think it's safe to assume that if a paradise were to actually exist, God would welcome her greatly
@@anti-ethniccleansing465 she is in the heaven
I love her hands. She has such beautiful long fingers, and I can imagine that God blessed her little hands when she was a child.
Our seniors are treasures. We should always respect them and take care of them. ❤️
CLARA...,STILL A BEAUTIFUL HERO....WISH I COULD JUST SIT AND HAVE TEA WITH HER FOR HOURS AND LISTEN TO HER STORIES....
I know! Me too!!!!!i could listen to her for hours.....
So happy to see this Chanel again. 🥕🥒🥔🥦🍒🌶
So I miss Clara this great sicilian woman, I remeber her and will not forget her⚘
I love this woman, she’s a blessing from God.
She makes me appreciate life so much more and realise how lucky we actually are!
I gotta show my mom this when she wakes up. These days were all trying to sleep and feel better. Thank you Clara, we miss you💞💞💞
Speaking of which, I'm about to take a nap
Clara
Clara reminds me so much of my Nan in appearance, also, unfortunately, passed away several years ago.
I actually thought of miss Clara as soon as all this stuff started happening. Loved the videos before, till so relevant for today!
What I think is that too many people today don't recognize that The Great Depression lasted 10 years.....translate that to 2021 and we can all appreciate the times Clara, and our own grandparents/great grandparents survived. We take food for granted.
Perfect timing since we’re about to have our own depression
Lovely lady ♥️.
Beautiful Clara, we miss you.
My dad had a huge garden, my mom canned everything. That is how we survived . We were poor but we always had good home made meals. My parents both grew up during the depression.
I was just thinking about her the other day!!!! Much love guys thanks for this!
I've missed you so much. I was one of your original subs from back in the day and still treasure your cookbook. Love to your Grandson for keeping the memories alive!
rip clara, we need you
They're making this famous again to prime everyone.
I almost thought I was seeing things when I saw it said three days ago but it just made my heart feel more warm. I never really had a family that loved me but for some reason I feel like she loves me through my phone it’s so weird.
Well, i can relate. Never got to meet any of my grandparents. Biological family doesn't act like family.
I'm sure Clara does love you.
I do too.
Take care
Hang in there ladies!
I know it's her loving nature,if she lived near you,you would have adopted her, I know what you meant
thanks for teaching me how to make dandelion salad i’m gonna need that soon
We need Clara more than ever.
I wish there were 20 seasons of her show! This has to be the top UA-cam channel out there.
"You're going to need the strength to do all the hard work."
Wait! a new Clara video!! whoo hoo! that alone is a light in the dark! see y'all at noon.
it is nice to see Clara memorialized in these videos great videos......
This old lady just makes me smile when I watch these videos, she's like the internet grandma we love.
Tears. I have missed her so! Prayers for her family here. Thank you for sharing this, I visit often.
We miss you Clara!! Can't wait for this video 💓
I’m so grateful you filmed so many times with this beautiful soul before she passed away. Thank you for sharing her with us, she is a blessing ❤️🙏🏻
I don't know what gave you the idea to record her but I am so glad you did.
I was just thinking of Clara today and how we perhaps are entering a prolonged time of great upheaval, peril and even economic depression. Made me think of her experiences, as well as my mom( born in 1918, in the Spanish Flu pandemic) and dad and others. Heard their stories and good advice, yet my life has for the most part, been in “ better” times, prosperity, etc. much can be learned from Clara, practical tips but also that resilience, sense of humor and no fear of work. Thank you for sharing this. I discovered Clara, not long after we lost her, so wish she was with us. Thank you also for doing what you did to document so much from her and sharing with us,
It's crazy to think how the 2010s were this century's equivalent of the Roaring 20s. We didn't realize that we were living in the good times until they had passed.
I agree times are getting so hard and I believe it will only get worse
She was a great person
It's surprising how many people don't know how to cook. I'm going to post my favorite, Poor Man's Meal, on Facebook for people to use. Thank you so much for these videos.
how is it surprising? maybe you're not familiar with this day and age? I just don't see how it's surprising.
@@Maplelust Troll comments always take me by surprise too.
I'm not being a troll. I just genuinely don't see why you're so surprised.
You're so right there, I come from an age where we cooked everything fresh you can't beat home cooking. I think we've become a lost generation, very sad.
@@julieelcock8477 Hopefully this will get them cooking. My young adult girls are doing their part by showing their friends how to cook. I'm going to try getting some neighborhood cooking classes together after this is over. There are so many things that can be cooked and served faster than going to get take-out.
I've been in need of a Clara video.
CORRECTION: we've been in need of a Clara video. especially now! good luck out there guys! we are gonna make it through this!

I love this little lady, she's so sweet and reminds me of my great grandmother, who raised 5 children through the depression. I'm blessed to have had her into my 20's to share her knowledge. Priceless!
Great lesson, we people are so caught up on having material things, when these people survived with having much of nothing..
I thought of her while all of this was happening, she gives me hope. So much love for her and to her loved ones 💕
Who the hell gave four thumbs down on this!🤬
Probably the same people who are hoarding toilet paper ! Clara always makes sense, people right now, today, don't
just gave her a thumbs up. almost 6k now.
People could also be sad and take it out on the buttons 😂 to think kids who miss their gramma would dislike it! It's true. Or just bored ignorant people.
Of all these comments, my vote is on the ppl who hoarded toilet paper & hand sanitizer. They seem like thumb downers. :)
... Or perhaps they meant to thumbs up and simply didn't notice 😅
Isn't it interesting how relevant her advice is today!
My granddaddy was a WW1 veteran. He married my grandmother in 1925. He sold a few hundred acres he had inherited, bought 4 houses cash money (no mortgages), bought 3each 1-acre plots of land to garden, he was a master gardener. One house was the family home, he rented out the other 3 houses. He worked the plots into gardens, rotating each year through the plots growing vegetables. My grandmother put all the produce up in mason jars. They did this all the way up until the 1970s. My granddaddy raised rabbits, chickens, and honey bees. He had a job as a postman walking a route w/ a big leather bag.
This is how he supported himself, my grandmother, my great grandmother, 6 children, and the neighbor- a little old man whose wife passed away- through the Great Depression and the WW2 homefront years.
I just love these! She’s wonderful and reminds me of my own grandmother. They don’t make them like this anymore! What a fabulous generation.
