She is missed by all her fans and her legacy she left is priceless.Well done Nana Clara.
Sally LittleShell Your Aunt Clara left a legacey if live and Food and Sharing.Its timeless and Will never End.You are an extremely lucky person to be of her blood.God Bless Your Family.
We miss her but god needed to take her to heaven so the saints above could taste her wonderful food. They love it and thats why she stays up there. God bless clara 💕
@@redking7313 Yes but dont forget, the 70 yr olds of today are the ones who said, "tune in, turn on, and drop out." We threw all that, Mom the flag and apple pie stuff down the drain........ REMEMBER?!!!!!
Why can't TV shows be this GOOD!! I miss Clara, she reminds me of my Italian grandmother. Thank you so much for sharing her with all of us.... Please find a way to continue what you've started.,,,,,
@@damienthonk1506 There is love and affection, connection, etc Not all families experience this. I haven't experienced anything that feels like family, and I grew up feeling I didn't know what home felt like, as there was just abuse etc where I'd been. It's only recently that I shifted from feeling so totally alone, which has only been a thing from mediation and connection with the universe. I still don't have any real connections with people, no one truly knows me, etc. Experiencing the situation like what appears to be happening with these ppl, Clara etc - does seem like a real family indeed.
Many thanks Clara, My Sister her husband and I spent spent Thanksgiving Day 2014 making these cookies. It was so nice to have an evening together without their noses buried in an electronic device. Today I made your baked apples. RIP Clara your legacy lives on.
I just discovered Clara's videos today. What a sweet woman she was. I was so sad when I watched her last show and saw that it was in 2011. When did she die? So glad she left her legacy in these great videos.
...Judy, if ya think about it, that's about the greatest way you can appreciate her...y'all spent family time together and enjoyed her recipes...what joy she'd get out of knowing that..:)!
She is just so adorable and always seems so happy too and you can tell how much she just loves her grand daughters here too...I think it is wonderful that they want to help her and also learn how to make these cookies too...I so wish more family traditions and recipes were handed down like this.
I miss Clara,not only could she put me in the holiday mood ,the food looks so good.Thank you for sharing her for just a short time.And she has some beautiful grand daughters also. Mark
I am thinking about Ms. Clara today as i am making her cookies for Christmas. I grew up in New Orleans which has a large Sicillian population that celebrate St. Joseph's day every year. Church ladies would come together and make literally thousands of these cookies for the St. Joseph alters held in many parishes. Over the years I have tried different recipes. While they were all delicious, none of them compare to Ms. Clara's! So now, it is my go to recipe and I think about this very special lady every year. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. We love you, ms. Clara!
I wish i could have met Ms. Clara. Better yet. She could have been my Nana. She seems like the sweetest little thing... id give her a big ol hugg and then on the way out.. id grab a couple of those COOKIES on the way out ..!! I know they were Awesomely delishious... its soo nice yall did what you could to help her in her last years. I was very young when i lost all of my Grammas. Great Vid..!) 🦋☕️🦋
Thank you for sharing this. I tuned in to learn this recipe for the St. Joseph Table and fell in love with this dear soul. I miss my mother and grandmother who both knew want from the depression. She reminds me of them. God bless her.
What a blessing Clara left us in these videos, everyone should be so lucky to have a grandma in their family like Clara. Thanks for sharing, we have really enjoyed these videos. My daughter's middle school teacher actually shared these with her class, and my daughter came home and shared them with us.
No you're not. But I've been watching for awhile. Also, I feel like the other 2 ladies are "acting" too much and ruining the Clara vibe. DON'T RUIN THE CLARA VIBE! She just needed someone to crack the nuts, I understand. Lol. (don't judge me, I'm sure they're very nice people)
Bless her. I know this probably sounds creepy, but I miss my grandma so much and watching Clara’s videos takes me back to when we would spend hours together. My grandma was a horrible cook but in some odd way the food was always delicious. Thank you so much for these videos!
The closest I had to a GM was "Aunt Marge" our next door neighbor when lived in LA. She overcooked a lot of stuff but I was a little kid at the time and didn't mind. I think she feared food poisoning in her day and maybe that had something to do with it. Lots of treats at her house and once made the best home made loaf bread that I ever had. RIP aunt M and uncle M.
Not odd or creepy AT all! Gosh, I learned to cook by watching my grandmother cook and to this day I still make her fun foods! HOME made fudge! Fried chicken , and everything is cooked in bacon drippings, well not the fudge but you know what I mean lol,, Bet your grandma never made fried squirrel did she or cook Poke Salad or Sallet as she called it. mmm how about Cracklins from pig rinds? See, its all what we grew up with that some people would turn their noses up at but,, we all remember as DAMN good eats! :)
@@duane_313 because chocolate was so rare back then and during poverty it was like an unthinkable luxury. My grandmother who was the same age never had chocolate during her youth, she discovered is alot later in life, when she was quite old.
I have never known anyone else who makes these!!! Except Aunt Sylvia. It was always a family event grinding the ingredients in the old meat grinder! We did it Thanksgiving weekend and my mother would make the cookies all month. And we would eat them all month! Watching this is bringing me so much joy. I'm a proud Sicillian. My grandparents came over on the boat & my father was first generation American and was a child during the depression too. Now I'm getting hungry. God bless! xoxo
MP light ......you are so lucky to have known your grandparents. Mine were either dead or very old. I needed a recipe for these cookies. I'm not Sicilian but from parents who never admitted they were children of immigrants through Ellis Island. Now I make cookies for my husband and myself. Store bought cookies will not do. I enjoy this lady as my parents grew up during the depression.
I love revisiting these videos. Nana Clara reminds me of my Nana Flora. I’d like to think you and my Nana are in heaven having coffee together and chatting about the good old days. ❤️
June 18, 2020, I came across Claras cooking show searching for a recipe and clicked on her poor mans meal. I am hooked! And I fell in love with her. What an amazing woman and my gosh, what a memory. I loved the stories. I’m so sad that she is gone but happy that she left so many of us these treasured recipes. With this coved-19 going on and money being tight these recipes are perfect for feeding a family of five on a tight budget. Thank you and God bless you for sharing you’re grandma Clara with so many of us. 💗
Can’t believe this was made 15 years ago. We were so blessed to be able to spend time with Clara. I have her book and videos and I treasure them. God bless her. She was such a comfort to so many of us.❤️
It would be an experience to just spend a day in the kitchen with her, cook with her and talk with her, listening to her awesome stories. Clara is so precious.
Clara's videos are the best! Watching these cuccidati Christmas cookies part one and two get me ready for the holiday, the past two years my mother died and I just didn't have the strength or will power to do make these. This year I'm making them again and Clara's recipe is simply the best. If you put the cookies in large tins and layer them with wax paper and foil they will last till march! this recipe is complex however I find it to be one of the best, from time to time I would add mini chocolate chips which give them a nice touch. If you are interested in making something that is a bit of a challenge then try these they won't disappoint. Happy Holidays to all
What a beautiful lady along with such a wonderfully family. It’s amazing how Clara will always be online for us to enjoy and the family to visit her recipes. Super beautiful.
How wonderful that she shared her wisdom and cooking with us! They just don't make 'em like Clara anymore! Thank you Christopher for sharing her with us!
God bless Clara and her family. You all were so blessed with this amazing woman. Cucidatis are my favorite holiday cookies. Watching this makes me miss my Nonnie.
"I get the unshelled nuts because I think they're better fresh." Translation: "I get the unshelled nuts because I love watching my children and grandchildren attempt to work as hard as I had to. THEY WILL NEVER KNOW THE PAIN!!" Haha, I do love this lady though, she's very sweet. :3
I hope you're still following even though Clara is gone now, Today, 8-12-22 , I sent Clara's grandson an email telling him, if he hasn't already, to make an E-book with Clara's Quotes,,, I hope he does! Clara was truly one of a kind,, but I still come back for her recipes and tonight I'm having Peas and Pasta! lol,, just like she made it,,
My dad was an ice man that delivered ice. Oh how I love and treasure these videos. I can't say enough about Clara. I wish I had discovered her sooner. And again, thanks to her grandson for making these videos and sharing his grandmother with the rest of us.
My great aunt (born in 1914, oldest girl in family of 11 kids) told me it was her job to wash the big cooking pots. She decided not to do them & starting hiding them outside in the chicken house. After a few days her mom wondered where all the pots were. Her brother told and she had to spend 4 hours cleaning them all up and only had bread and chicken broth for dinner. She still hated cleaning the pots. My favorite uncle (born in 1907) always washed the pots; they cooked & canned together.
Oh my God! Cuccidati!! My Nonna used to make them too. I love Clara, she's as cheeky as my Nonna Josie was. We have to keep these traditions alive. Thanks for posting this!
Clara is so special and so calming, no matter the time of year, if I am anxious or nervous or just need a pick me up, I can just watch Clara and feel better. I love her no bologna attitude, but her videos either make me laugh or just feel better. I know she is gone which is of course, beyond sad, but her legacy and spirit live on in these wonderful videos thanks to her grandson, Christopher Cannucciari! Thank you, Christopher!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful stories Clara! With the current state of the world, the younger generations have so much to learn from your wisdom and experience. You are such a sweet, charming, humorous breath of fresh air!
You know what the best part for me was, and is? My kids still ask me to play her videos on here once in a while! Clara filled the hearts of many! She is truly a gem❤😊
I am so glad to have come across Clara's videos, such a beautiful memory of your grandma. I enjoy baking and I have to say I've never come across this cookie recipe, I'll definitely be giving these a try, I call these Clara's fig cookies.
I wish I still had my grandma around! We used to bake together all the time at Christmas. It's nice to see these 2 young girls baking with their grandma. Great video!
This is so enlightening, how our ancestors food was so different. The times were so different, we are perhaps a little spoiled. I remember going to my grandmothers' house on Christmas day. My mother and aunts cooked for weeks. The food was delicious and the best part was being together. Making memories and being about to look back and reflect on what was really important. LOVE OF FAMILY!!!
I'm definitely am going to try to make your Sicilian fig cookies recipe. Thank you and greatly appreciated. You're truly a wonderful lady, an inspiration with great wisdom and experiences. Thank you for sharing.💖
Dear Nana Clara.I watch you every winter and again on the 18th.Yes, we are born the same day.We are all priveledged to hear your stories, your cute laugh, your twinkle and your gentle mannerism and sharing your sweet family.Today i finally have the nerve to try this recipe.We miss you❤️🇸🇯
This lovely,funny woman was a blessing to this earth while she was here.....I dearly love all her videos. I just ran across them last week and have been watching them over and over. I love her. Thank you so much for creating the videos and sharing them with the world ! God Bless. .................................
I have saved these videos of Clara and visit them every Christmas season to get the Cucidata cookies just right. They are part of my kiddos tradition now. Thank you for sharing with all of us ❤

Dont worry there are always going to be old people
@@redking7313 Yes but dont forget,
the 70 yr olds of today are the ones who said, "tune in, turn on, and drop out." We threw all that, Mom the flag and apple pie stuff

REMEMBER?!!!!!
It seems like we went right from sentimental to just plain mental!
So stop complaining and get another tattoo. Happy?
No there isn't. She sure is a delight to watch. May she rest peacefully. 😭🙏🕊
She has an incredible memory to be able to remember this recipe let alone all the others she remembers. What an incredible, inspirational woman.
Angel Albano she had this recipe written down.
I mean, she literally has a recipe book that you can buy.
well Google does exist.
She was amazing but you could clearly see the cookbook reflection in her glasses.
Why would people dislike any of her videos. They are so interesting
I wondered that too...she is a gem!
Chloemacmillan I know right. Some people! I love her!
Old folks hitting the wrong button 😉
31 with no taste.
because some people sit on their brains...there is no way, intelligent and caring people could ever not like this beautiful soul!!
Why can't TV shows be this GOOD!! I miss Clara, she reminds me of my Italian grandmother. Thank you so much for sharing her with all of us.... Please find a way to continue what you've started.,,,,,

Oh, so wonderful! Both Clara and the cookies are precious and special!
I loved listening to my nonnas stories. I learned so much from her! So nice for the family to have these videos. Shes adorable
It's like my fruitcake recipe! Such a nice video!

She is a sweet heart. Glad he documented some of her recipes. God bless her and her family.
Rest in peace Clara.
