My next ride will have it. As it is I'm only a few steps outside the front
door. I can nip out, fire up Bruno and start the seat and streering wheel
heaters and defrosters going and come back in to finish my coffee. I've
got a "valet" set of keys so I can lock Bruno to make sure he's still in
the driveway when I'm ready to leave. Bv)=

I've been getting lazy as I get older. Especially since I disovered the
"Healthy Choice" frozen entrees. When Hy-Vee puts them on sale for <U$3
I stock the freezer. Since Dennis is playing Uber for his son and D-I-L
his schedule and mine do not match often. So I'm basically "cooking for
one" anyhow. Bv)=

The plastic bowls from the H.C. entrees get washed and reused to hold meal-
sized portions of plan/left overs. They stand the microwave well and they're
both inexpensive and virtually unbreakable. Heck, I've even been known to
use them for soup or cereal bowls.
