That's a nice story. One day I was parked in some national park parking lot out west somewhere, and I decided it was time for serious breakfast. So I popped the top, opened the door, and started brewing coffee and scrambling eggs with cheese and mushrooms. That got a lot of curious looks out of other folks! Even though we weren't stranded in a blizzard on the highway somewhere. It would be nice to be able to offer people hot drinks out of the van when stranded in a blizzard. Even if there weren't enough bacon and eggs to go around.
