This isn't really quirky at all, but I really enjoy washing the car, lovingly polishing and protecting all of its surfaces to banish all signs of winter. I spend hours on this, and enjoy every minute. Then, with stereo at full blast with some great tunes, I drive it to a Dairy Queen and gorge myself on an ice cream sundae: maybe a Peanut Buster Parfait (my all time favourite.) This year with the convertible, I'm going to do it with the top down.
If it's a sunny warm day, so much the better. But some years I just can't wait. As long as it isn't snowing, I might just do it next week
