The summer of 2000, Allison Adelman and I, in addition to co-authoring a cookbook, somehow found time to bepaint the behemoth in which i've been driving around for the past couple years. My mom was even inspired to finally get me WI license plates. Now, not only is my '88 Olds Cutlass Cierra legal, but it's beautiful, too. I get honked and hollered at driving around town, at gas stations, and open-mouthed stares and shrieks of delight from small kids on tricycles. Old men in beamers drive by and scowl. |
