Ha! I rather feel that way about the Volvo wagon I drive too! I've come to
love the thing. We named it Zippy because it isn't (well, unless I'm going
uphill in Southern Oregon, to believe the state trooper :-/). But she gets
REALLY good mileage.

Of course if with was Orange, it would be *perfect*! ;-D)

His dad is feeding him something, not me. :-(  (And yes, I still
desperately want my kids back.)

OFC- does anyone know of a period recipe for manicotti? There's a couple of
summer events this kid likes to go to, and it would be fun to surprise him
with his Favorite Food in the World at an event...
