I remember in the summer staying away from home all day long...so long as I could hear my mother call us in at dusk.
I remember air raid drills during school I remember buying penny candy from the corner store...I was only 5 the store was 6 city blocks away. I remember "raiding" the neighbors tree for apples (we had permission, but the idea of raiding it was more exciting) I remember changing the channel with the clicking dial on the set. I remember how an 8 track would occasionally cut a song in half. I remember being shocked when a candy bar went for $.25. I remember Grandpa giving me soap for Christmas, and being excited about it. - I tear up when I smell that particualr soap.

Ummmm........ I remember hanging up my stocking and running down in the morning to see what was in it.
And would you believe .... there was an orange, some nuts and some candies. Do you think kids nowadays would be happy with that? I remember mom canning all the summer fruit so we could eat it all winter.

For a main gift? It's usually an educational DVD or a book. I plan on teaching my kids how to dry food, and can foods this next year...I have to take a refresher myself first, it's been a while!
