It's just something about nostalgic content that never gets old. So relatable.
Amen ,I’m from central Texas and I grew up very similar and I’m trying to keep those traditions now and forever 🙏🏻📿🙏🏻
Yes!! Especially since this country is in such turmoil I long for this nostalgia.. the good bad and ugly nostalgia
How is it relatable u don't live in the 1970's so you can't relate
@christianjones4644 why such hostility? Maybe they grew up in this Era...
Yes mam great values of old days gone.
I love that little snippet of how she just casually speaks Creole/French. It just sings off her tongue. So beautiful to hear.
At the time, both Kouri-Vini and Louisiana French were already on the decline. It is only since the 2010s have people been attempting to revive the languages and even then progress is still a bit slow
@@thewisp7447 It was, but you know, in the 1970s, there were around 1 million French and Creole speakers in Louisiana. And we've been working on trying to revitalize our languages since long before the 2010s. It really started in the 1960s with the establishment of CODOFIL. But CODOFIL mainly focused on standardized international French until the 1980s when people started writing poetry and other literature in Louisiana French and promoting OUR variety of French. They also had people in the '80s and '90s at that time working on documenting Louisiana Creole, which was first documented in the late 1800s and appeared in some French language newspapers in Louisiana at the time. There still weren't really any efforts to promote the usage of Louisiana Creole until the early 2000s, though. That's when I started getting involved in the movements for both languages, Louisiana French and Louisiana Creole, after I graduated high school in 2004.
I grew up in the '90s, and this is how it was for me growing up down in the lower Bayou Lafourche region. I heard French all around me everywhere I went in my community. My grandparents always spoke it around me, and being the curious child that I was, I asked them to teach me some.
@@Louisianish where can I learn my grandpa spoke it my ma n her ppl from vacherie
@@thewisp7447 thats because my generation was told not to speak it or learn it, it would hold us back. My mama would punish us if she heard us speak it. now i only know a few words. so sad.
Love how she is talking about the good ole days and a much simpler time. 1970…if she could see today.
She longed for the days. I say, keep the days, bring back the ways. Big difference.
Yess Bring back memories living in the Tinroof farmhouse w/o running water or indoor plumbing but kept the Family close
WHO U TELLIN'?!!!
It kinda shows eventually we all talk about simpler times. Eventually you’ll look back again and realize things have changed again. Might even crave what you had prior or your life will get better and you’ll move onward.
Wow
That looks so good! I’m Mexican American and my grandparents always had a pig head cooking in the ground . Nobody made a a fuss about where to sleep. All the little cousins on blankets on the floor giggling until 2 am. Good times ❤
❤
I did not know , you could cook in an earth oven (ground oven). I ate this as a kid but never saw it being made
@@vellabella1 mouth watering
I love roasted pighead
I from the South and my Grandfather made his Brunswick Stew with the hog head, we ate the brains and everything.
I'm from Ouachita Parish and the family bonding is so nostalgic. I'm proud to be a Louisianaian 🥲
Me too!🎯 St. Landry Parish
Ouachita Parish here, Richwood, three houses down from thick woods, youngest of ten. Aww...the times we had when we got together.
East Baton Rouge Parish here…🙌🏽🙌🏽
@ashleymarshall8696 Heyyyy! I graduated from Richwood High School. I moved to Texas but Louisiana is always within me. All my family is still there ❤️
@@uenvyme23 Same here. I did a big pot of red beans and rice with andouille sausage yisdiddy
Did she say she gave birth to 16 Children!? Such a hard working woman.
Yes and raised 14!
That was quite common back in the day to have large families 💯💯
Yeah they knew how to take dick and enjoy it
That was very common. My dad was one of nine and my mama was one of 15.
Everytime they had s*x they got pregnant. No contraception whatsoever
I wish it was a longer video. What a beautiful creole family.
Right 👍

Where is it we need to see more!
Man when families cooked together it’s seems to bind them love this
I genuinely enjoyed watching all of the family members helping in the kitchen. Everyone had an assignment, this made my heart smile. ❤❤❤
That grinder! My mama still has our family's, one! Its literally stamped with 1895! It works like a charm! Love this!
Hello🙂 vannawhite are you from Louisiana?🤔
@@guitarjoe4580 No, sorry!
@@VannaWhiite
Oh just was curious by seeing this video I'm in Texas and never been to Louisiana what about you?
I had a Creole co-worker (there’s a fairly large number of Louisiana Creoles in Los Angles) who had a lot of old family recipes. He brought some red beans and rice he made to work one time and I have never had red beans and rice that good before nor since. 🫘 🍚
I am from the Caribbean. In her accent I hear traces of the accent of people of the French and formerly french colonies in the Caribbean.
I heard Lousiana Creole stemmed from Haitian Creole. Not sure if true though.
@@dangerislander We didnt stem from Haitian Creoles. Haitians came to Louisiana during their revolution but Louisiana also had its own Creole population. They intermarried within the Louisiana culture.

Every generation talks about how life just isn't the same anymore. This lady is reminiscing about old times, meanwhile it's the 70s. I'm sure her kids today say they wish there was no time like the 70s. I think humans will always be in a perpetual state of nostalgia.
Bruh - Respect to u- BUT- I'm sitting here WATCHING this with MY FINE Creole lady- Vibing - and Chillin- do not mess with my groove-- my cup overflows!!!
yeah it's weird that one day in 50 years someone is going to be reminiscing about 2023, calling it a simpler time when life was slower
This reminds me of growing up creole.....gumbo was a staple in my family...now some restaurants charge over 20 dollars per bowl for something that was considered a poor man's stew
My great grandparents were Louisiana Creole.Was super close with my great grandpa. I am very proud of my creole heritage. Want to go to Louisiana so bad.
Come on down
Get your rest before you come so much culture , an Southern hospitality , an eating 🙏✌️⚜️🌹
Creole you mean the folks who thought they were too "pretty" to be black? 😂
❤️❤️❤️😉
@AreTheyWhiteOrPink idiot, black meant slave status. In america we all the same people no matter the city, we just have different accents. These are American Indians, not carribeans not Haitians or non of that. They were here before thr yts came like the rest of us. They are politically now Foundational Black Americans
I’m one proud Creole woman especially after watching this reminds me of being with family in Kinder, Louisiana!!! My great aunts and uncles cousins and friends Goodtimes I will never forget!
Can't stand Creole's such nasty people who have the nerve to look down on dark skinned blacks when they are black too
Reminds me of a boucherie down here in new Iberia La
@@amosjohnson863 I remember them days cousin would roast a whole pig in the country make a fire pit turn on some good music and everybody having a good time! Talk about the good old days we also have roots there Breaux and Gabriel are some of the last names of my family out there!
I went to kinder high and I’m related to some of the martins ! I learned a lot out there. Fishing,hunting, and appreciating the simple life
WEEKS ISLAND HERE!!
Literally my family! I’m seeing this footage for the first time😳❤️
Seriously? You are lucky. A lot of people didn't grow up with all that close clanish affection.
@@calibean7736 That's how it was, ol school southern black American families. This lady reminds me of my grandmother and that's why I clicked the video. She literally looks like her. Crazy, small world...If only we knew what we had then. Sadly families aren't this close anymore.
@@CandyCoated96 I’m back! That hog head cheese is similar to what my grandmother made but she served hers warm you would roll it up with picante in a warm soft corn tortilla. YUUUUM😂❤️ I’m salivating. Everybody sitting around her big black skillet with a stack of warm tortillas. 🥲 Miss my Grandma.
@@calibean7736 Wow. That sounds good. Great memories. My grandma made hers homemade aswell. She made hers pickled and spicy and we sliced it and we put it on crackers. The good ol days. I wish families were like they use to be.
Really, how are they related to you? Does anyone in the family still have these reels or more like them? Would be awesome if you could get them to share more if they have it. We gotta get more culture up for people to see
I am from hundreds of years of creoles from Louisiana, this makes me feel so at home.
Lordt she looks and sounds like my grandma ❤️🥰 I miss her
Wow, your grandmother must have been so beautiful! These people are gorgeous!
She preached from 3:19 to the end of this video, it touched me so much, made me think about the gatherings my family had in the old days, but all of them are now gone and I miss them and the family time we shared "bring the old days back"
Only thing we have now is the memories 😢 countless photos and obituaries
I remember times like this with my Creole and Cajun grandparents, mother, aunts, etc. I used to blow into those skins when I was helping them make boudin, sausage or whatever they were making. They're all gone now but the memories remain. Thanks for sharing this heart-warming video!
❤❤❤
My great grandma is 97 and she's from (Providence Louisiana) Greatful to have her in my life.
It’s so true and we are in 2022 but I wish we could bring back the 80’s
That young girl was gorgeous!!!! And the french accents, and spoken language is awesome! I took 7 years of french, I see now the influence it had on the american south. So cool!
Yes it was so influential that white French men had whole families with these women
I grew up in AR, about 1 hour north of LA...I believe chaperon is a French word. I also believe that girl had one every. Where. She. Went!
@@89426😂😂
@89426 No my Aunt had 7 brothes, and 6 sisters. She is the baby of the family and Aunt Pinky can hold her own.😂😂😂😂
@@RAJOHN-ke7mc I think your comment has set us back 400 years. Most of these encounters were not by choice. The women who chose this way of life were a means to help their families out of a tragic, tormented, and demeaning life. Would you make such a statement to a Holocaust female family member? They were used and abused as well. They to were forced to care for German children. How do you think they were treated by their people and communities? Think before you pass those fingers across that keyboard.
She was spittin at the end. She’s talking about us on our phones always earbuds in and of course she’s not but it translates so well
This brought back so many child hood memories. We would drive from Chi to Louisiana every year. I can almost smell, the wooden floors, the paneling on the wall, the gumbo cooking on the stove, the fresh smell of hung dry cloths off the line. Man I miss it😢❤
Wow imagine she's saying life was too fast in 1970's I wonder what she thinks of life now in 2023. Hopefully she's still alive to know. It's amazing to see how times have changed.
She was at least 55 in that video. That was 53 years ago.
Doubtful she’s still alive
@@MoManny Awww ok, well thanks for the info.
I just looked her up, says she passed in 2001
@@Jayothechosen how old was she when she died? Can you post a link? Thanks!
@@MoManny I think she was 78 since it said she was born in 1923 I'll see if I can find it.
2:47 - French is spoken! That’s incredible to me! I hope that Louisiana French hasn’t died out. What an amazing part of the vast tapestry of America.
No but it did in mississippi
I'm 42 now. I live in Montgomery Al. But I grew in a small village walking distance from the Mississippi river. Between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. My great uncles used to fall off into french when speaking. It's probably not completely gone, buy we were kinda ashame of that way of talking. But now I realize how rich that was
@@christopherrobinson1219
Which Parish, which side of the river did you grow up?
Unfortunately majority of its speakers have died off and they did not teach it to the youth back then because it was a code way of speaking and it was against the law 😢
@@sl5346 for our family it wasn't code, they were sort of embarrassed by it. So it didn't pass on in a major way
Whoever caught this on camera 💯 That food looks good!
I miss my home in Louisiana so much, I grew up eating all this.
I love my southern culture and especillly my African Diaspora cultures!!! The first thing I noticed is how mama cut the greens just like mamas do in all of Africa, with the knife in hand cutting bunches from the other hand. We are still one people even when language and names and oceamns and time separate us.
Definitely ❤❤❤
This is MOTHER AMERICA, these ppl never been to Africa. These are AMERICAN INDIANS

@chrisboldennewsome9146
they just good old American Indians. Nothing to do with carribeain people. They are what you hate to love now called Foundational Black Americans. She said " they call us creol people I dunno why they call us that". She just what we call country. Damn this is how it was for all of us mostly all throughout our land America. Different recipes but same thing, piled up, eating and chilling
Family life, good food, sweet conversation, and no phones. No plates going up to no rooms. Sit at the table. Precious moments!
I know that’s right!
that woman right in that kitchen, cooking and feeding with love, that is worth all the gold in the world. the family pearls.
Reminds me of my grandma in Lake Charles! Gosh I miss her!
I wish we could see this family today🙏
Creole food is cosmopolitan food, created in New Orleans with African, European and Native American roots. The French influence is strongest, but vestiges of Italian, Spanish, German, and even Caribbean can be found in some dishes. The essence of Creole is found in rich sauces, local herbs, red ripe tomatoes, and the prominent use of seafood, caught in local waters. It is associated with the old-line kitchens of New Orleans, where generations of traditions are carried on today. Think of rich, roux-based gumbo, shrimp creole, grits and grillades, redfish courtbouillon and more
Idk. My ppl aren’t from the east coast. Our original food was mainly buffalo and turnips. All that pig head shit look gross. Idk bout the creole cuisine
What's African about it?
Man black people made that food stop trippin
Yall always wanna leave us out of the great things we made....but yall Wanna be exclusive with your cultures...LEAVE OURS ALONE!
@@gripwilson6229they definitely said African roots… and ofc black foods come from African roots so idk what ur yapping abt
This nearly put me to tears… Makes me miss my granny and my aunties an uncles so bad… They would cook like this.. us kids played outside with no tv or cares in the world… Everybody helped… Miss Eva talking about missing the old days and this was the 70’s… Even today we still miss the old days…

Creoles of the German Coast of La.
This really makes my face smile. It reminds me of growing up with my siblings, cousins and grandparents. I took so much for granted.
Love this! If she thought life had gotten too fast then, imagine what she would say now. I wonder how many of them are still alive.
And life will get even faster in 10-15 years. Time waits for no man

Very nostalgic it makes my heart full!

This was amazing to watch. I wish it could still be like this now days... it was great for the soul. Food looks soo good too...
Ma’am you would gasp in 2023. Some women are cooking but most aren’t. Everyone is distracted on their phone. Children definitely don’t help cook and are disrespectful. How I wish your days were today.
I'm a Louisiana grandma, I learned to cook from my mama and now I'm teaching my grandkids the ways of a creole kitchen.
I love seeing my Creole heritage. This looked like how my family would get together. 😍😍🥰🥰⚜️⚜️
They don't make ppl like this no more.. sad but true.. remind me of my grandmother in Louisiana..
This was so nice to see real footage of happenings in the home from the 70's
i showed this to my mom and she definitely had a nostalgic feeling of her growing up with her grandmother and helping her cook at a young age just like the kids in this video thanks for posting this! my mom definitely enjoyed it too
This is my MawMaw Eva, my dad's mother.
I was so confused why so many people in the comments are saying this video is of their family. I was thinking "ok, some of ya'll must be lyin" -- but then I realised: she said she raised 14 children.
And from there, most of those 14 probably had children starting around the 80s, and now those kids (your generation) are adults with kids of their own. She has a ton of descendants just based on logic. You should hook up with the others in the comments, they're your cousins!
Is she still alive? We need more videos! Create a CZcams channel!!
So similar to the way I was raised. I like how the toothbrushes were hanging in a bin in the kitchen. I’m number 10 out of 12. I was mostly raised up with my nieces and nephews . A time when everyone really loved each other.
My mom is french canadian, I grew up on headcheese, and I make it every year around Christmas. Sooooo good. I like mine cold on toast. C'est bon!!!
I'm from a family of 18. My mama who is Creole had 18 children and raised 18. I'm from the Plaquemine Parish of Iberville in Louisiana. This reminds me of us cookin in the kitchen with my mama, sisters, grandma (Na Na), and my aunties. Proud.🌷❤️
WEEKS ISLAN HERE- Iberia Parish
Good memories and real sisterhood was shared and respected in the kitchen when 2 or more women were swiping and sharing recipes with one other
She said and its true today life is moving fast and taking the togetherness out of families.

Im Louisiana Creole from Jennings Louisiana. We are not Haitians. Sure some Haitians fled to Louisiana during the Haitian revolution in early 1800s. But there have always been Louisiana Creoles since French rule in the early 1700s. I wish people stop saying we got our culture from Caribbeans because that is not true.
How about if you did get it from Haitians or the Caribbean in general, what would be the problem with that? Hmm?
@prissylinksx We didn't, so I wish Haitians would stop lying on my culture. Louisiana Creoles are not Haitians. We have our own culture, and we didn't get anything from Caribbeans. Louisiana Creoles been in Louisiana since the early 1700s. Haitians didn't come to Louisiana in large numbers until 1804 and most of them were Frenchman fleeing the revolution in Saint Domingue. Stop it with the revisionist history.

Todays peoples would consider the 70s the epitome of family time and here the 70s did not.
Just Proof that people have never been satisfied. We have been complaining about things we can easily change for ages. Nothing new. I can apply her argument to todays time bc the human spirit is more designed to complain and see the lack when life changes. We don’t handle it well bc it always seems to feel like a form of loss fr yesteryear. It’s the human condition.

Oh come on Sha if you can't understand ma you ain't from Louisiana now you hear doesn't matter white are black
People need to understand this about Louisiana. We have two sets of Creole groups. The Black Creoles are the enslaved African, France, Indian, and Spanish. Most of them are in Lake Charles, Lafayette, all Zydeco and Trail ride towns. In New Orleans The Saint Dominican Creoles are the mix Creoles that came from Haiti with the Cajun Haitian. Just like the Cajun people two sets of them. The ones that came from Novia Scotia, and the ones that came from Haiti. Second president of Haiti rant out the Cajuns and the Mix blooded Creoles. After the revolution when Toussaint was deported back to France.
The Cajuns who came from Haiti migrated there from Canada and was there for only a short time.
Black Creoles, there's way more Creoles in South East Louisiana than just New Orleans. Most Black Creole speakers in South East Louisiana are not found in New Orleans but are in St. James and St. John Parishes. In Southern LaFourche, Terreborne, are the Native American speakers. In Western Ascension and Assumption Parishes it died around the 50's
@@herewegoagin4667 im born in raised in New Orleans,i think personally most black people try to divorced themselves from blackness.

It's nothing wrong with evaluating & studying your ethnicity or your whitebloodline but when certain blacks use it as a appropriation to whiteness,that's sinister.
@@TheJayblaze3
One thing about that is it was white English speakers who made mixed race African people to be "Black" but "Black" is not a real group. Mixed race people always had a separate category because they were a new creation and neither "Black" nor "White". It wasn't until Americans introduced the 1 drop rule that anyone with African blood became Black so some people just try to hold on their lineages vs adopting color identifications.
@@herewegoagin4667 Exactly! Black is a color not a race. The African diaspora is a range of colors ranging from "black" to pale tans. On the continent of Africa there are also many tribes and ethnic groups. People of mixed race should be free to identify with their culture without the imposition of labels.
@@herewegoagin4667 once again,you aint fooling nobody with your gibberish. When white folks bring mixed race people in for abuse,they dont care about your history. Im not going to go back and forth with you,i just sit back and laugh when whites give yall that wake up call.
It's just black american south louisiana food. Guess those people feel more comfortable with the word "creole" attached to it.
You see how she said that they are creole and she doesn’t know what it means…. So telling. Many of us are indigenous… “native”. Look into the Attakapa and Chitimacha tribes! The Houma tribes!!

Bring the old days back. Pallets on the floor, eggs , grits and sausage in the morning. Fresh coffee on the saucer. Miss it.
Pallets- an Indian term- mother 100per cent INDIAN from CHARENTON Reservation- Iberia Parish
It’s funny she said she would bring the old days back and I’m watching this like this was a good time within itself
I just came back from Louisiana this past weekend, I was there celebrating our Grandmother's 100th birthday with my family. Coushatta, Louisiana is where my daddy's side of the family is from.
her daughter is so pretty and natural
im 38 so my "simpler times" was the 90s ... so to hear her talk about the 70s being too fast goes to show its all relative and every generation looks back at their youth as the golden era
Yep, everyone thinks their times were "simpler". It's all just nostalgia for maybe better times in the past while also ignoring the problems from that era. I certainly do not want to live in 1970s america.
I-10 had only been around for 13 years by this point. Her youth was vastly different as a result.
Doctors made house calls and collected cash money for payment. They were using industrial equipment to process meat in their kitchen.
The highway changed all that; outsiders came in and started forcing a different way of business. Business interests lobbied cities to make raising chicken or hogs a crime.
People often used to drink their water from wells or cisterns. They put people on treated city water around this time. If she died in 2001 and was 55 in the video that means she lived to be 86.
