Five things I miss from my childhood:
1) My best friend Amy! We would run around our neighborhood barefoot with no cares in the world! Building Barbie houses out of the stereo, making grasshopper homes from grass, jumping on the neighbors trampoline, and riding our banana seat bikes!!!!!!
2) Heading off to Camp Ponderosa! Every summer we would pack up the bus and head to Colorado for camp! Mountains, creeks, campfires, cabins, and boys! Oh, the memories!
3) Late night trips to Albertson's or Dunkin Donuts with my dad! He would let us buy whatever we wanted: candy, chips, soda ,cookies, and lot's and lot's of donuts!!!!!
4) Visiting Oma (my grandmother) in Union, New Jersey! The sights and smells of her home are unforgetable. The green shutters on the window. The coo coo clock chiming every hour. Walking up the creeking stairs. Waking up to the smell of fresh bagels and coffee and Mom and Oma talking in the kitchen! Eating off the current bushes in the backyard. Playing ping pong in the basement! Walking to the market and the butcher! Bus trips into New York City. I could go on and on and on.....
5) Cooking dinner for my family with recipes from my Nancy Drew Cookbook! I loved that cookbook - I hope someone kept that!

Great list--
I read every Nancy Drew book--I loved them--but until now I didn't know there was a cookbook!!!
It really is kind of fun to take a trip down memory lane!
Thanks for playing along!
