From what I read, that was pretty uncommon even at that time.

And we were among like the last age group who could elect for home ec pretty much across the country.

Like this was a time, this was about the end of the time where you could find a home ec classroom in most high schools or middle schools.

But that is not the case anymore.

Although it's still around, it's just not everywhere like it used to be.

No, I remember you told me they filled in all the sinks with cement.

So, class would get really boring really fast.

True, true.

I understand that it's called home economics in Australia, and I think maybe Canada, and in the UK they call it food sciences, I think.

It's all the same thing.

And essentially what it is, for those of you who don't know, it was a class in high school where you would learn basic life skills that had a lot to do with being at home.

You would learn sewing.
