    We boomers learned about using leftovers from our depression-era parents. Monday nights were always leftovers at our house.

    I can eat leftovers for a week if it hasn’t gone bad. Make a big pot of something I like and I’m good. No thinking of what to go everyday or every other day and no cooking, just heat ‘em up!😊

    When I first got married almost 30 yrs ago, my daughter said please don't let mommy cook anymore. Her home-ec teacher taught her when she was in school to take all your leftovers from the night before and dump them into a bowl, mix in your favorite cream of soup and pour it into a casserole dish and top it with corn flakes and bake. While it was sometimes good, my daughter said oh no not again, daddy please cook something else.

    The 1970's was a time when my mom started experimenting with new recipes for supper. Thank heaven for daylight savings time! As a teenager, if I didn't like the new food, I would walk to the McDonalds down the street for a Big Mac and fries. Of course before I left, my dad would give me the old speech about how they ate what was given to them, because food was precious during the depression. I just missed the regular food my mom made before, like tuna noodle casserole, meatloaf with mashed potatoes, spaghetti, stew and her own idea of chop suey. Back in the 1960's, if we were very sick, Grandma would take the time to boil a chicken and make homemade chicken noodle soup! This was a treat we only got when we were sick. The rest of the time, Mom made us settle for canned soup (no comparison)! Either way, there was nothing like Jell-O afterward for a sore throat! 😋

    Give me a break mr robot. It was the silent and the greatest generation that left nothing to waste not the boomers. Sure the baby boom generation grew up knowing stiff but their parents perfected making due from. Nothing

    You are way off in what you consider boomers. In this video, you are talking about our parents. We were the kids born during the flush of the post war economy and we had everything. Our parents knew how to scrimp and save and had it much harder than us. If you look at what we did as we grew up, we certainly were not scrimping and saving!! This is not the first video of yours where you confused our generation with our parents' generation.
