So simple and so delicious!
This is so much more than cooking simple, inexpensive meals. Its about learning from older people in our families who have so much life experience, and that older people can be very active well into their 90s and beyond. Watching Clara should make us all appreciate the older people we have in our lives who teach us so much. Reading about the Great Depression is one thing. Hearing about it first hand from someone who lived it is another.
@PomBare It’s not a sauce. When you cook these, the sugar and cinnamon melt and mixes with the butter and apple from the juice and makes a saucy concoction.
Awww, I love watching Clara cook!
@intercessa Thanks for the reply, I can go ahead and make these now :)
@PomBare The sauce is what happens to the sugar and butter when they melt and get infused with the apple juice.
Clara, you are adorable. I love your shows. The apples are awesome, as are your pepper and egg sandwiches! God bless you!
