Good point, JoJo.

Hairy,
I thought of a few more things to do with the Jelly that Never Was.

Make a shake for D3 with a scoop of peanut butter, some grape syrup, and milk.
Make a good old Purple Cow with the syrup and vanilla ice cream.
Mix it with plain gelatin and see if you can get it to turn into grape jello.
Use it on pancakes and waffles.
Mix with water and make popsicles.
Drive it up Hwy 70 and give to your friend Honey, who is now craving a taste of her childhood and concord grape anything.

Hang in there and my advice regarding your wife is to keep it short and simple. Tell her: "I feel that all you do is criticize me. I cannot remember the last time you said anything complimentary to me. There are plenty of opportunities for me to criticize you and I refrain. I would appreciate it if you would show me the same courtesy."

P.S. I liked the brutal honesty comment! I will remember that little nugget of wisdom.
