A lot of you would classify indoor plumbing, central heat, grocery money and gasoline as ‘needs’ But wait, are they really always needs? Food was preserved by canning, drying or storing in a cool cellar or the ice house. For humans, the most basic needs are air to breathe, some kind of food to eat and water to drink.

Ours was smaller (about 700 square feet) – 2 bedrooms (my brother and I shared one and my parents the other), a kitchen and a living room, No basement or garage. Kids did chores and not all of them were ‘safe’ My brother mowed the lawn with a homemade electric lawnmower. Food/shopping. Fast food was rare.
