  1. The bread they used eat long ago was wheaten and barley bread. They used have to grind it in the quernts make flour out of it.
    They also used make stampy. This is how they used make it. They washed and peeled the raw potatoes, scrape them on a grater, and drain it on the table. When it was drained it was put into a cloth and squeezed. Then a cake was made of it.
