But ever since I studied memory in school now I always feel weirdly doubtful of my childhood recollections, scared I've partially invented them!<br /><br />(Yes, I took that a weird place. I'm sorry.

None of us remember a damn thing from our own lives before age 4 or 5! Haha. That gives me some time to improve my cooking skills and hold off taking him back to Disneyland.

Thinking about my sledding experiences, I have a distinct memory of playing out int he snow so long that my nose was running. I would take my knitted glove and wipe my nose and still remember those snow clumps making my nose cold. It was the texture of the moment. Why I remember that? I don't know but sledding was definitely one of my favorite childhood activities.
