I Used To Have ...

I spent the day going over responses to a list of questions I sent to a few acquaintances who sent them to a few other acquaintances. I sat by the computer the better part of the morning opening each email as it appeared in my inbox with new answers. For some reason I'm getting very excited about this query and the project associated with it.


What I am finding most intriguing is how similar our nostalgia is, regardless of the generation or culture we are from. We all long for the same types of comforts that have faded into something else that becomes the comfort someone else will soon long for too.




These are the questions:

What are the names of discontinued or hard-to-find products, foods, toys, clothing or other things from your childhood or young adulthood that you'd most like to find and would probably buy if you could find them? Please send your responses to research.peggy@yahoo.com .

Think hard and have fun!
