Cool car concept. I'm bemused by the passenger-safety-in-crash ability of fabric, though.
Unspecified -ma for Dana.
I'm with amych in the belief that some food pickiness is hard-wired, whether texture issues or latent and undiagnosed allergy or sensibility. And also in that lack of exposure can lead to resistance to trying new things.
StE used to teethe on frozen green pepper rings, his very favoritest thing. Hated onions, though.
Yay for new kitchens!
And Sue, it sounds like you should have coffee before you go in search of coffee. I'm sorry about the dangerous quest this morning.
Dad update:
He was discharged from the hospital 2 days. He's understandably tired, but is up and walking. His diabetes is all frelled, and his blood sugar levels are crazy so they have him on insulin. But other than that, he's okay.

Well, its internal frame would provide passenger protection. Just like it does for cars with plastic or fiberglass bodies. (Saturns, Corvettes, etc.)
Most children eat a wide variety of foods until they are around 2, when they suddenly stop. The phase can last until the child is 4 or 5. It’s an evolutionary response, researchers believe. Toddlers’ taste buds shut down at about the time they start walking, giving them more control over what they eat. “If we just went running out of the cave as little cave babies and stuck anything in our mouths, that would have been potentially very dangerous,” Dr. Cooke said.
Thanks for posting this! I knew pickiness was at least partly genetic, but I'd been worried I'd done something wrong because Annabel has grown more finicky over time. When she was 18 months or so she'd at least sample anything you offered to her. Now, NSM. It's not that she doesn't like strong flavors, it's just hard to get her to try anything new.
Good news on your dad, Kat!
I'm glad for the Dad news, Kat. Vibing for an uneventful recovery.
dood. one needs to introduce the BMW people to the e-ink people. then we can have manga cars.
ma~~ towards Dana
I have had no coffee this am. Have to take Percy to the vet. This leads to trauma all around. because the cat that is reasonable to us- thinks everyone else is evil. And I don't want to know anything more than he is old. No coffee 'til after the vet.
good news about your dad,Kat. and I am guessing getting back to his regular life with help with the diabetes a lot.
