traces a kitchen from the 40s through the 00s while a family tries to cope with the changes in diet through that time. I could relate to all of them and more, having dealt with Victorian kitchens in Boston that had a more modern free standing gas stove, a free standing sink, fridge on the porch.. One granny had a 1920s kitchen and the other had a 1930s kitchen and I saw subsequent changes as my folks moved from place to place. Yes, I remember the ice box with drip pan underneath, it was one of my favorite toy I now have a 1940s kitchen with better appliances and no counter space.

(sorry, can't remember the name of the series, can't find it now. Too bad, it was hilarious)
