Thank goodness Clara had a grandson who recognized just what a treasure he had in this precious loving lady and he knew the rest of the world needed a Clara fix. Bless him for sharing his grandmother with us.
+Phyllis King they also did amazing with the editing!!! made me feel like i was watching a documentary!!
I wish she was my grandma lol
Phyllis King Thank you Grandson. Your Grandma would be proud!
I agree. Hopefully he shared the money with her too.
@@trailerparksupervisor7046 the world doesnt need you. Please leave
I'm glad people are still interested and still watching Clara.

I shared these videos with my mom and some friends and they love Clara!!! Rest in Paradise
Just love her!! So much we could learn from her
James Dooling absolutely!
she is / was amazing !
“Everything was terrible but we had good food.” She’s wonderful. What a gift to have this footage! ❤️

I love her ❤
Yes she’s a joy to watch ♥️
💯
Absolutely. What a life she’s led, and she shared it with us all
Its 3am and I'm up making bread :) I'm a 49 yr old man and my adult children are slowly coming home. I have no idea how long this pandemic will last or if another depression is near . Times change and we push on . I'm grateful for her videos and the knowledge she has given . When I was a small boy I use to help my grandmother make so many things and my grandfather taught me to hunt and fish . They had a big garden :) Over the last few months I've stocked this house with 6 months of supply's and in the last few days my wife and I planted vegetables where the flowers use to grow . I really enjoy all of this and I'm greatful for each day . The neighbors have a farm and they trade eggs for my hot loafs of bread. The barter system has already started . I wish everyone the best .
Great to barter with friends. The price of eggs is ridiculous right now.
Wonderful.
It's important to be as prepared as possible.
I sense another lockdown coming soon.
Look at what is happening in China.
How did it turn out! 😊
@Becca Wilson It turned out OK 👍 Still prepping and I ended up getting my own chickens so I always have eggs . We canned alot of things and planning on more this year .
Did you plant a garden this year? We have the biggest garden we've planted so far with another small one closer to the house. We have chickens and quails with more chicks arriving this June. I bought an incubator so we won't have to order anymore unless we want a different breed. I added trellises this year so we're adding a bunch of different gourds, grapes, bitter melons and other vining plants. After the high heat last summer I wanted to add things that love heat. Things are looking crazy out there. I wish you the best my friend. More gardening and more prayers. 🙏
5lbs flour to 2 oz yeast. Clara doesn't measure the water, it's all by touch and sight.
That seems to be the way all great cooks prepare food. Thank you for sharing this beautiful treasure!
What kind of yeast is that..in a cube?
Dat bread dough...lol
I was curious...amazing 🍞
That's how I learned from my grandmother, 55 years ago. "Add water until it looks and feels right." lol I still do. Recipes are for sissies.
Everything was terrible, but we had good food. Amen Clara!
My grandmother always used to say that too. She was the daughter of immigrants and grew up during The Depression too. She was a great cook too like Clara. May they both rest in peace.
Ibbygirl where she was from?! I mean your grandma?
2:38 "that's sad, I'm laughing, but it was sad"
I am child 8 of 8, raised by a single mother, we were poor to say the least, but it's amazing to see hear the similarities, my mom's parent's were both from Italy, I can make a meal out of anything, grow a garden, and repair clothes over and over, it's kinda funny when I see my friends struggling who make the same money as me, well, I but generic, I shop of clearance racks, I repair things before I throw them away, and I generally only buy what I need, when I do splurge I make it count
Angelina Marita i gave you the 420th like
It's Saturday night, and I am sitting here watching a 93 yr old woman bake bread. Now off to watch her make peppers & eggs
Funny but I'm here in 2023.. and I still miss Mrs Clara vidos from 7 years ago. It's nice to revisit these videos and forget the nonsense going on now.
Nothing left from hollywood is worth watching so I'm all Retro viewing movies and faith based things. Mrs. Clara gives me hope for the future.. I prayer her family is keeping her posterity alive for many decades.
@@boorchid6458 i'm watching the same as you....try american bandstand with dick clark. all the shows are on youtube including the dance contests.
Me right now on a Saturday night!!
"I'm laughing but it was sad"
Clara is a whole mood
RIP grandma Clara😭😭😭😭
I miss my grandma Clara
When I heard the crusty bread being cut, I was a six-year-old in my Grandma’s tiny kitchen again. Sitting on my knees in the chair at the table, I watched as she did exactly what Clara does. Except, when Grandma goes to the sink for more water, I pinch off a little dough and hurriedly pop it in my mouth. She knows it. Grandmas know everything. Rest In Peace, Georgie Girl.
Probably one of the reasons why she went to sink.
This could have so easily been a show in PBS when I was little. This content is so valuable and meaningful.
Definitely something that could’ve been on PBS around 5pm on weekdays :,)
So true!
"Everything was terrible but we had good food" 💯💯 literally the story of the unrich
Not everyone, many didn't
with italians if you had a full fridge - you were rich. My mother had tons of jewelry and fancy china and crystalware - when we came back from vacation she forgot that she had emptied the fridge out before we left for a week. When she opened it up she said - no matter how much jewelry you have or how big your house is, It makes me depressed to see an empty fridge.
@@SirParcifal I agree with your mother.
i find this hypnotic . She is so humble and unpretentious. Comfort viewing
"Go get the meat by the fence." 😂😂
Lol!!!!😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
IKR 😂
Haha..
Ya lmao
real survival skills...
Without YT we would miss out on so many wonderful people like Clara.
You're so right...I hope that youtube is archived for ages to come, so that people can enjoy its content for many generations.
Did you ever watch Peter? Geriatric1927? He passed away last March, but he was a beautiful soul and he spent many of his last years sharing his life and wisdom here on TH-cam and for a time, he was, I believe the #1 most subscribed youtuber which is awesome.
Peter, no never watched any of his videos I'll check it out!
She is like the Bob Ross version of cooking. She could read me the telephone book and I would still be interested, what a soothing voice. She is funny and I love her stories in between her cooking. RIP grandma!
Sad thing is back then, the poor all made home-made and relatively healthy food (If ingredients weren't tampered with) so things could be enjoyable and the food can act as an upliftment from a dark time, but the poor today only have access to processed/ nutritionally low and empty calorie foods in what can be described as a 'food desert' and relegated to future health problems. While those who can afford it spend top dollar for artisanal foods which are made from simple ingredients and funnily enough the food of the poor in the past. Very weird how time has some sick humor. We can learn so much from Clara now and always, her wit and wisdom will always be with us now, and I am forever thankful.
They are food desserts because too many people steal from the shops or the government raises the taxes too high and the stores leave.
EXACTLY!!!!
I can only imagine how wonderful the house smelled with all that homemade bread baking. ..yum!
Smells HEAVENLY. God bless Such a great LADY 🥰🥰
I’m still here after binge watching her videos. I been feeling anxious and depressed lately but something about this woman just pushes me to snap out of it
GOD I love old people! They make my heart feel good. I could almost smell that bread- and I just remembered she'd made peppers and eggs before that. That house musta smelt like Heaven. Thank you for sharing Clara with us... I agree with all the other Clara lovers.
"Older people" sounds a lot more respectful.
I saw her making that "well" and just cried I immediately remembered my depression era grandma making biscuits in a well like that god I miss her.
❤
I am so sad that I just found you. I have been watching these videos all day. RIP Clara.
+Coopdizzle I completely know what you mean! I just found her because of a Facebook post... Been watching her since around 6AM. She was one amazing lady! RIP Clara!
+Coopdizzle i have been watching them all day too and also just found her. She was wonderful.
+Savanah Oneal I just found Miss Clara, too. What a precious person she was. God rest her soul.
***** she was wonderful i love her videos:)
Me too, I just found her. It reminds me of my grandma so much ...
She has a smile that melts my heart!
+WilsonEatsASMR her smiles moistens my ladyparts
Wilson, I am a big fan of your channel. I agree completely with you. She's something special.
I caught myself smiling when she did.
wade s Wow
And her little laugh...
Like Clara said, "things were terrible but we had good food." Nonna Clara we love you🥰 as you watch us from heaven.
Oh my goodness the sound of Clara cutting into the bread is everything that's good in this world!
Exactly ♡
Oh your nonna was a darling. I have fallen in love with her. You were all so lucky to have her in your lives. I love her kitchen: her cupboards, the stove, her enamel mixing pan, everything in that kitchen harkens a bygone era.-discovering Clara and these videos has been like stepping back in time and visiting my childhood . What a gift. Thank you to her family for creating these treasures and posting. And thank you, dear Clara-may your sweet and gentle soul be resting in peace.
Still watching in 2023 and grateful for the stories. Our stories. Thank you Clara. Peppers and eggs, a childhood memory of my own sweet Nonna who could make something delicious out of almost nothing.
Clara is giving me life during my COVID-19 lock-in. 😢 😭 My grandfather was a depression era kiddo and he did so many of these same things. He passed years ago and I only wish I had film of him like this! Clara - a national treasure! Thank you so much for these videos! 🙏 ♥
Same.
I never knew the love of a grandmother, so Clara is it for me. Her family was so lucky to have her in their life. I love hearing her stories, and fell ashamed about how easy I have it.
After seeing a few of the videos and finding out that she passed away, It was like family...I cried...some of her recipes were like my grandmother's but my grandmother did not have her lovely disposition. she lived my grand grandmother to 94..she was not that pleasant..but her stories were good ..and I have her recipes...
Clara was a lot like my grandmothers, thank goodness...she always made me feel so Blessed and happy. I learned things about the Great Depression I never knew about too...I so wish all of us could have had or do have now a Mom or Grandmother like Clara...and yes, I cried too, when her family put the video on about her passing away...she was family...😊🙏💖
I just now found her vidios. .so sorry she passed....what a beautiful lady.
@@countrygalinthecity Yes, she truly was and so giving too...she loved, loved her family and friends...and when she found out that TH-cam watchers were flocking to her channel...she was shocked, but sooo very happy too.
So wonderful. I’ll try Clara’s recipes soon. We still have my grandmas too, she had the best sugar cookie recipe ❤️ my family still bakes them!
Mercedes Herman RIP Clara
Just found Clara - didn't know that she had passed - What a fantastic example of a great human being - wouldn't the world be a far better place if everyone were as kind, co-operative, considerate and loving as her? -I'd rather listen to this wise lady all night than waste my time on any stupid reality TV show
Stfu
+truthtrumpsdumbness what a great comment!!! I agree with you 100 percent!!!
you read my mind, this lady is what we should all strive to be, not like krap kardashians
truthtrumpsdumbness Amen to that.
truthtrumpsdumbness we can learn so much about life from people like her. worth more then gold to me
Thank you for keeping Clara on TH-cam! Sometimes I just watch to visit with her again and again. Her memory is just so precious and a blessing to all!
With the world going the way it's going ....we better start learning these meals...
It’s 2023 and I still come back to all her videos ❤️RIP Clara
A great example of a strong woman that endured hardship and continue living with such love. Love her recipes. Thank you for sharing .
Exaclty! Not like the pathetic “role models” they put today..

I’m 29 years old and love watching her videos what a special lady she was
God bless her
I remember asking my grandmother to tell me about the great depression, since she lived through it, but she simply refused to talk about it.
It was really frustrating because I merely wanted to learn from her life experience, instead of only learning about it through our school books, but I guess it was so traumatic that she didn’t want to even recount it. I am grateful for these videos.
Horrible things happened. People lost their homes, jobs and savings. Clara's stories are more about how her family got through; gardening, canning, home cooking, squeeze every penny until it gave birth to a quarter. My parents grew up in the depression but my father's family lived on a farm so at least they ate. My mother's brother could remember until he died what it felt like to go to bed hungry. They were town folk. I just love Clara; she like 'yeah, that happened.' Her family survived.
Can learn so much about life from the way our grandparents lived. My grandma used to mix all her baking in a giant bowl of flour. Every ingredient went just in the middle of the bowl. It never stopped that bowl. Pie crust, bread whole nine yards. The best biscuits and baked goods came from the same bowl. She was amazing.
I absolutely LOVE how Mrs. Clara uses the term “rosy” to describe anything browning. Truly puts a smile on my face. ❤️😊❤️
I know right? Me too. I watched her "rosy up" her twice baked potatoes yesterday, and today it's "rosy baked bread". 😊
I stumbled across this series of videos in 2015 and watched quite a few before I saw the one where she had passed away. I felt as if I had lost MY grandmother. Please keep Clara on here and continue to share her with more and more people!!!
I'm a man and I truly love and enjoy listening and trying to learn from Clara.. I tell you right now that the rare true treasures of our elders that's gone ahead, those days and times are now extinct...very sad days we live in now.
Mission accomplished!! I made this bread with our soup and it turned out AMAZING!!
how much time you let it rise?
Zenyrokx You generally let bread rise until it doubles in size. It can take an hour or two depending on ambient temperature, how much yeast you used, etc. The first rise. After you put it in a pan, the second rise usually is a bit faster. Bread is a great thing to make, but it's also one of those things where you have to be patient and give it time.
thankx!
how much flour and yeast did you use
Well done!!
What a lovely woman. So sad that I just found her videos. I watched about 9 videos and then saw the one where she had passed and I was so invested in her that I shed a tear or two...strange to feel like that, but she was amazing without having any sense of how amazing she was.
SusieQ Glue I cried too when I saw that she had passed away.
I watched Clara when she was still alive,, and my heart was broken when I saw the sad news,, Tears,,,, YOU BET! But I still return here to watcher and listen to her wonderful stories,, :) She's still with us :)
SO DID IM A MALE AND SHED A FEW TEARS REMINDS ME OF MY GRANDMOTHER AND WHAT SHE WENT THROUGH I LOVE THESE VIDS
I watched her when she was with us and I cried my eyes out when she passed,,,,,, but,,,,,,,,,,, She lives on because of what her grand son has done for her ,,,,,,,, and US! :) We LOVE YOU Clara!!!! ;
I cried when I found out. She was like a perfect mix of my great grandma and my great aunt and I found her about a year after they both passed away. (They passed away within 2 weeks of each other). I was so sad and definitely cried. I cried when watching her videos just thinking of them and then cried because I missed her even though I’d never met her. Thanks you for sharing her.
We used our balcony in Siberia as a Freezer during cold months
I like to watch Clara's TH-cam videos she is so nice . Glad that her grandson recorded her and put her on TH-cam.
I am sad to hear she passed away.
The most beautiful woman in the world!
Agree she is pretty now than when she was young.
I watched and watched these videos. I'm still here watching. She has a calming effect and is a symbol of what women used to be. Pioneer women. I use her recipes also. Clara, you touched people till you went to the maker. Thanks
She calms me too and I have watched over and over and have the book and DVD..With my husband dying this helps me for some reason.
You know she will never read this because shes dead
@@sherrygeorge8613 Thank you
@@sherrygeorge8613 Thank you
...like Phyllis Stokes.
I’m 33 years old born in 1990, I enjoy to cook in the kitchen for me and my son , I can tell you I have used some of her recipes! Also just now I learned how to bake bread!!! and spent hours watching her on you tube late at night after I put my son to bed. Thank you, and the person who has uploaded these vids to introduce her to us.
I've been in a funk this last week and was laying on the couch and said I need some Miss Clara in my life. God love ya Miss Clara. I do. You always make me smile.
Oh what a dear woman. She reminds me of my Gramma who raised me, who had also lived during the Great Depression. Long ago Gram taught me how to use whatever ingredients were around the kitchen to make a feast, and she often recounted stories like Clara told about how to have a positive attitude and survive hardship. Those who lived thru such times learned the hard way to appreciate the blessings we all too often take for granted today.
The older generation has always been the repository of much wisdom but our nation has come to the place where seniors are no longer respected or cherished like they used to be. So many young people will never know the blessing of sitting at the feet of such wise and practical survivors.
To whomever posted these videos: Thank you so much. They've brought back such wonderful memories of my beloved Gramma, and hopefully will be watched and appreciated by a new generation.
+Quinn Burpino Thank you for reminding me of the same. I grew up when there was a dignity about one's comportment, a reverence for God, a pride in America, a respect for others, an appreciation for everything, and a courtesy extended that is often missing today.
Unfortunately, many things are plastic today....including people. So I'm grateful to Clara's grandson for chronicling her recollections of a different....and better.....time in America. Maybe a new generation will watch these and try her tasty survival recipes, but adopt her positive 'survival' attitude & response to life's challenges.
ScreeminMerme, I agree!!!
sugar and butter were very rare and expensive commodities back in the Great Depression. When I use to work in the nursing home industry, I noticed that many of the residents liked their coffee a tea plain black, nothing in them. I asked a few of them why and they said they did without sugar and cream when they were younger and they never felt the need to add it. Sad to think how spoiled many of us are (esp. my 30 something generation).
Still watching Clara, in these uncertain times she brings such comfort. And marvelous, easy recipes! Thank you Clara * sending a kiss to the heavens * and thank you to her wonderful family for sharing her with us. TH-cam's grandma. With love!
Watching Clara from New England with my 88-year old mother. Clara is part of the Greatest Generation. I pray we can learn some lessons from her. Thank you for sharing her with us. May God bless you 🙏🏻
She's so lovable. RIP Clara.
+Miriam R i agree she was my youtube family and i feel like i lost a grandmother ! :( Rip clara ps. thanks to her family for keeping this you tube acount up for her fans i have learned so much
I'm so addicted 2 this channel!.. even though I don't like 2cook, I'm thinking, I just may attempt 2 make bread 1 day. Jst bc she inspired me!RIP miss Clara! It would have bn my honor 2 have met u
I started watching Clara a few years ago and I was HOOKED. I think I binge-watched every single one, and went back for more afterwards!
I just ran into them again and found my several favorites (peppers and eggs, bread, dandelions) and I'm posting a. few on my social media sites.
Clara was and is a national treasure.
+Kara Amundson Why is it that when most people see someone like Clara, they are so touched by them and they are drawn to them and call them wise, which they were and it all went into growing the character depth that they have? Today, when people try to tell younger people about character, they don't want to hear about it because it will spoil their fun and their love for acting badly. And people wonder what happened to make things like they are today. Try to tell them and they deny that's what's wrong.I was born to older parents born in the beginning of the 1900s--1901 and 1903. They shared that wisdom with me and I ate it up. I'm so glad they were my parents.
I just found her videos a few weeks ago, after me looking to make basic things, because of what is happening now. She reminds me of my grandmother!
Who would imagine something so simple would look so delicious
I love Clara. These videos are ao calming, valuable and timeless. They make me feel like I'm a kid again and I fell asleep on the living room couch while watching a Celtic Woman special on PBS with my mom, then woke up at 2 A.M. to find Clara cooking, and I stay up to keep watching. Feeling cozy and safe, I snuggle up to my mom, and all that matters in that moment are Clara's peppers and eggs.
Great Depression or not, this bread is what I grew up eating up north in Quebec... And it's AWESOME! Clara, you are now undoubtedly an angel of our most precious Savior, I am hopeful you can read this. Know that my four daughters and I will be forever changed by your legacy... #Blessed
I need to have patience to bake bread, I get so frustrated cause it is a long process and I sat here and watched her (precious ) take her time and relax and I felt bad that I can not do it but she did.. I am learning so much
lydia green don't feel bad. Its best to make it when you're not hungry so when it's finished you're ready to eat. I'm also in a hurry when I cook because I always cook when i'm hungry
There’s so much to be learned by the generations before us. I just wish more young people would take the time and interest to realize that “old” ways have just as much value as the new and shiny things that the modern world has given us.
The good part is most recipes make two loaves so it is not in vain.
As long as you understand you need to continue to learn, that is progress.
Honestly, I'm much happier to just pay for fresh baked bread sticks my local grocery stores baked section. It's much easier to just wake up early and get it out the oven than to do this whole process.
I don't know how I stumbled upon Ms. Clara videos but I love them. It brings tears to my eyes to read she has passed away. What a beautiful soul we all can learn so much from Ms. Clara. Thank you for keeping her videos up because as you can see we the people adore her.
Still watching 2020-middle of covid 19 pandemic. Something about these videos are so comforting. If Clara made it through the Spanish flu I can make it through this.
I just LOVE these videos of hers! My grandmother was frugal and home cooked EVERYTHING. I miss her so much. I do a lot of home cooking myself. I really enjoy making yummy things and watching my family enjoy them. I miss this generation..
:(
This bread is AMAZING. And I store it in some jumbo christmas cookie tins and it stays fresh.Tastes just like the stores Italian bread they bake fresh and charge $2 a loaf for but this made 3 big loafs and a pizza TY. RIP
What wonderful woman! Her family was so lucky to have such a treasure in their lives!!!!❤♥
Who could ever give this a thumbs down? She is just the sweetest little old lady.
every time i make peppers and eggs i think of clara
undertaker666dead same here i actually made them 2 weeks ago and as i cooked them i could hear her laugh and her story..such a dear treasure we lost..RIP Clara...she sure is missed!
Clara we friggin love you!! So sorry for the family's loss. She was a beautifully brilliant soul.
You know it wasn't all about what she was cooking, but how she cooked it...it gave us all an insight into a time not many can remember today. It was about how harsh some of their foods, available to them, were and the harshness of their life then. Her Mom fixed it so her children and family would think it was a treat almost...when you have those talents, like Clara, you can feed a family for next to nothing and still make it taste really good. People today, think if a meal doesn't have meat with it, that something is wrong...we oftentimes lose our imagination when it comes to preparing food for ourselves or our families...Clara taught all her watchers that there is a lot more things you can cook, that are far less expensive and taste even better, when prepared the right way. When Christopher first approached his grandmother, Clara about filming her...she said no one would want to watch some old woman cooking...it wasn't long before she realized that there were a lot more of us out here than she ever thought possible, that dearly loved watching her cook and telling her stories about the Depression...when he told her, she was surprised, he said...but, it made her really happy too.🙏💖
I’ve been watching these videos for several years.. Clara reminds me of my own grandmother. She also grew up during the depression, did her own canning, and was always baking and cooking in the kitchen.
Omg!! No wonder all her classmates wanted to trade lunches!! That pepper/egg bread looks AMAZING!!😋
So beautiful to watch her cooking simple foods
Looks like I’m making bread tomorrow. Her voice and calmness is so soothing and pleasant.
I learned this Egg&Pepper dish from Clara's channel, shortly before her passing. It is still a favorite and I always think of Clara while Im making it! ❤️
She seems like a calm woman and friendly, sadly she passed away in 2013, Rest in peace, God bless Clara
Made this tonight but added cheese to the peppers and eggs. Great!
TheCRAZYCAT68 I don't know if you're a spinach or tomato fan, but my husband loves it with spinach and tomatoes, along with peppers. I have my own technique with making the bread. I make french bread when I make this. It's really tasty!
TheCRAZYCAT68 I was thinking the same thing when I watched the video, that all it needed was some cheese!! Watching the video made me so hungry for this pepper and egg recipe, I had to go out and buy peppers tonight for breakfast now in the morning!!
These are literally the best cooking videos and young adults should watch too! Teaches the basics!!!!
My own maternal grandmother was around 96 when this was filmed and she also told me many stories about the Depression. She immigrated to San Jose, CA in the 1920's from New Zealand when she was a little girl and her family ended up moving into a largely Italian immigrant neighborhood.
Who doesn't love Clara? She is the greatest. She remains me of my great grandma so much. Always cooking and telling the best stories. I miss her
Thank you for the recipe and God bless you, Clara. You're resting with the angels and I'm baking a loaf of this very bread in honor of you. :-)
I love hanging out with you Clara! I sure do miss my Grandma! I just cherish your Depression Cooking videos, especially in these trying times. May your memory always be for a blessing, sweet Clara.
Love Clara's videos, not only for her beautiful and relaxing self but for recipes that are true home cooking. Who knew bread was so simple? TH-camrs be telling you to use this random type of flour and kneed your bread for about 10 hours and add in 1000 extra ingredients. This bread is simple and perfect
I am so enjoying watching Clara cook, I spent the first 10 years of my life glued to my Great Grandmothers side. She was born in 1913 and my sis she have stories to tell....
I would love to hang out for an afternoon with someone like Clare. Such a precious lady.
they're everywhere, try an old folks home, if you don't have anyone in your own family to visit
greatedcorn I think she used two yeast cakes for a 5 pounds of flour which converts to 6+3/4 teaspoons. It raised a lot so make sure you have a big bowl handy.
greatedcorn Or three packages 0.25 oz. of dry yeast.
I miss her, I follow her on facebook, and unfortunately she passed away, maybe a year ago? She was not quite 100, an amazing soul and wonderful person, i am so glad they go to share this.
This is cooking by look and feel. These are the talented people we learn the most from.
"it's sad. I'm laughing, but it's sad."
I relate to that reaction.
July 2023 I still watch her. I have her cookbook.
this series is awesome, really helpful advice for anyone who is cooking on a budget but still wants some good home cooked food.
ITSROBHERE you’re right! I was searching for recipes that don’t break the bank and stumbled on this wonderful video. I’m excited I have lots to learn
Such a beautiful soul! I hope Clara knows in heaven how much she’s appreciated in 2020!
This lady was a true example of the folks who embodied the Greatest Generation. Wish I had known her!
i didn't have a Clara growing up, my grandmother was....not well. So im watching Ms. Clara and It feels like im a kid watching his grandmother show him things.
She makes me smile she makes laugh she makes me cry and then smile again.❤
Love the sound of the bread when Clara is cutting it 🤤 my mouth is watering hahaha
She reminds me of my gread grandma. She used to bake every saturday and I helped her. I learned so much about work from her. The love for food and eyeballing everything... she was like magic. I miss her so much.
I laughed right along with her when she recalled the memory of having to use snow as their freezer. "Go grab the meat by the fence" lol 😂
So sweet, so kind, so wise... she left a legacy to many people through her videos.
I was suppose to go to bed and instead I stumble across this channel. ☺
My father was a depression Era child, and I miss him so much. We lost him in 2018. I find comfort in these videos. Thank you so much for recording her and sharing it with us!
Making bread with basic ingredients and no measurements? Challenge accepted!
MustardSeedish she came out with a little book that has the recipe in it. It's so simple. I'm making some right now as a matter of fact!
pretty easy by feel, actually.
This looks so easy that someone who doesn't know how to cook could make it.
baking is more fun when u realize no one is gonna come thru ur door and bash u over the head for not measuring
I don't know if I can get away with that.
I got the basic ingredients down. Flour, water, salt. Sometimes I use active dry yeast. Sometimes I use a sourdough starter. Really, that's all bread is. But the no measuring part? No thanks. I need my scale. I get my ingredients down to the gram.
Of course she reminds me of my grandma. Shes still teaching me
