My Mom made soup and casseroles for us. My folks owned a grocery store, and as time went on, Dad kept it open longer and longer, so he was often home late. He had steak and French fries every night he worked. We often had Swiss steak, roast pork or oven baked chicken for Sunday dinner. I still like Swiss steak, but I don't have it often. I can make knedliky with my eyes shut 
My Mom either worked at home, ran errands for the home or the store, or took care of us kids.
We ate a lot of canned goods, too. Cleveland in the 1960s! In the summer, we got a lot of fresh produce. I bet my Dad ordered extra when he ordered for the store. I was just telling my granddaughter how my Dad would bring home a whole case of corn on the cob, or peaches, or tomatoes. There were 9 of us in the house, and we ate a lot. We lived with my Gram. She was head cashier at the store. If she had a day off, she'd make cookies, Jello or pudding. We could demolish whatever she made in seconds. lol Lots of good memories.
Nice to hear from you!
