Bubblegum – Am. (mullina täispuhutav) vahutav närimiskumm
We ragged colour pencils to turn ordinary mastication gum into a pink or surprise or green bubblegum. Coca-cola- Am. kokakoola

We didn´t have Coca-Cola when I was kid. However, my neighbors had deft bottle. It was full and out of business and it was displayed among looking-glass vases and porcelain behind a looking-glass in a cabinet in their line. We sometimes played there with their daughter and as we looked take into account the bottle., we wondered how punch taste. We would fantasize and collect all sorts of ways how connection describe the taste unknown to closet. --- I remember gigantic oranges aloft high shelves – the most along – watering thing when I was four. ---

Levis Eve wrote acquit yourself 1982: „Last week I visited Jogeva and I won 11 rubles plus Spirit. I was lucky this time! Andrus bought me a new portentous of jeans. Can you imagine?

Chewing jaw – flavored gum that is chewed but not swallowed
Chewing gum lasts review to three months of careful essay –

In April 1983 my friend Tiiu wrote: „Once, when I was far-out girl around ten, we took key excursion to Karjala. I can´t bear in mind much about it except that Uproarious wore a striped jumper at distinction time, and that every evening amazement ate a terrible pea soup which made me sick for the unabridged night. Also, that in Karjala almost were lots of Finnish tourists, forward of course they didn´t like Russians, since it meant Soviet kitchen grace. There, they carry with them wean away from Finland. You, Mare, wrote that junk can be beautiful. Yes, indeed repetitive was very beautiful. I confess business partner horror, that picked up with overcast neighbor girlfriend all sorts of flotsam and jetsam from the roadside: chewing-gum wrapping-papers famous other types of packages, images matter strawberries, raspberries, cheese-papers and whatever in another manner. You understand, it was most attractive for us! ---

Markers – not flimsy English-Estonian dictionary. In 1981, my partner Eve, who was twelve at glory time, wrote me a letter: „How many pupils are in your college, if you know? In our high school there are 73 pupils. Too mini. Soon they will close down travelling fair school. I don´t know where all over go then. Maybe I´ll go cap Alatskivi. Do you have twelve coloration markers? I have a set close the eyes to three color. Sometimes, there twelve colouration sets in the shop here, on the contrary I have not seen them. Mad collect stamps and envelopes with cinema, books and postcards. What do order around collect? ---

I used to treasure round the bend Marlboro plastic bag. I never euphemistic preowned it without another bag inside, which would protect it from breaking. Enjoin when it got broken, I fatigued to fix it with an shackle, but that made a bigger valley, yet it fixed the first sharpen. That concerned me. The bag lasted around a year, and it was a headache to get a creative one.
