I remember the Great Depression, WW1 and WW2 stories I was told as a kid. My grandparents were either farmers or worked in a factory. I think about those stories now that I'm old and wonder how I would have handled the adversity they did.
Life is much easier today.
I do too. When I was eating at gma's and Gpa's you ate everything that was put on your plate. Nothing was wasted.
