A packet of Hot Chocolate

mixed with a packet of oatmeal is a warm, welcome afternoon pick-me-up on a cold spring afternoon.

Especially when you make it with hot coffee.

And when you’ve given up chocolate for lent, (except as an ingredient in other foods) it does a good job of backing off the chocolate withdrawal headache.

Speaking of G wagons

This is the one I’d like to have. No frills, Mercedes’ excellent 5 cylinder diesel, tough as nails. Good luck getting that titled and licensed in the States!! Outside of a Gwagon, this is the only other Mercedes I’ve ever wanted. I’ve seen one pull a hummer sideways through waist deep mud. I’d have to have the money and the place where it would be useful, though, and at present I do not.
