All your concerns would be appeased by Jello. No matter your concerns: Jello. Familial unrest? Jello. Split fingernails? Jello.

Sisiggy, is he Lutheran, by any chance? As Shay said, jello is a vegetable. As for the way the lady is dressed, take all of the jeans and slacks out of your wardrobe, and a nice housedress is what you wear to vacuum. And always a hat if you go out in public. My grandmother could have well been the lady in that picture, and she wore a hat to the grocery store, even when I was a child. Mind you, when I was a kid the pterodactyl was still our national bird, but ..
