    Growing up in the 50s in Wisconsin, we never heard of pizza until Dean Martin's song. Then a pizza restaurant opened up in our nearby town, and we fell in love with it. But it was expensive, so my mother used to make pizza at home from The Appian Way pizza kit which was just then new at the stores right around 1959.

Everyone offhandedly commenting “I wish there were more videos like these” are absolutely right - they are few, and precious - *and as all of our favorite cooks, musicians, artists, and teachers, storytellers, must pass away someday, so we must cherish, bookmark, take notes, and share these pearls of wisdom.* As each day goes, fewer and fewer voices from the Golden Age remain to have their stories heard.

      When I was a child, my mom made these pizzas from a kit. It had the dough, the sauce, some Parmesan cheese. What it didn’t have was mozzarella or any other type of shredded cheese, so sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan was all we had on it.

    I started watching her videos because they came up in my recommended on youtube years ago. At fisrt I resisted thinking "what is this Poorman's meal? I don't need that" But one day I watched out of curiosity and boredom and found one of the sweetest and most real people. When I found out she passed I was just heartbroken. But it reminded me to listen to our elders and enjoy the love and friendship we have with people regardlesss of our circumstances. It can all change so quickly.

    I started watching Clara in 2020 during the Covid pandemic, it’s crazy how she speaks about her family being closer during the great depression because she had less money, there wasn’t enough food and people we either at home or at work.
    Not to compare 2020 to the great depression because through Clara it sounds worse than the 2020 pandemic, BUT in 2020 we all got closer to our families for the sake of being stuck home, we looked up tiktok coffee recipes and found ways to be creative with what we were going through, it’s also the same time Clara’s channel came back up to the surface.

Once in a while, though, she would say something that boggled me, such as how much better canned vegetables were than frozen. "Yeah, I know, Grandma . . ."
