Switched to Oliso iron

Correct answer. When it becomes clear that the day is jinxed, the correct

be in the same color family as one of those...

Suggestions needed Please

I'll second that. Dove's a wee bit more civilized-acting than Grandma
Mazur, but that might just be the southern (Arkansas) influence in her
history, while G. M. is all Joisey. :)
