I wish to thank all who reponded to my posting. I enjoyed reading the variations. My chilhood years were in South Jefferson County during the Depression, however, I never went hungry. My father always raised a pig, mother raised chickens, plus there was always a large garden for fresh veggies and later canned. Milk was plentiful. We used to go wild blackberry picking. I have often wondered how the people in the large cities such as New York, Chicago, etc. survived. Happy Holidays to all! Florence
