For 'This Depression Baby', the Frugal Lessons Now a Fond Memory

How it was for me growing up and now remembering how my parents saved, reused over and over again. Roaming the web today found this MUST READ. Found this where I visit often on Lucianne , read the comments and then the original article in the Houston Chronicle, by Amanda L. Grossman.


I remember how we keep our milk cool in the cistern, also when the delivered milk got frozen, the creamy top come up,of course that was before homogenization of milk.

Brings to mind Tom Brokaw's "The Greatest Generation"

I tell my grown kids about the "hard times" every once in a while when I see waste, they just politely listen.
