Wife driving car= bad mpg

I went out of town for the week for work and left the car for my wife. I filled it up and drove about 90 miles on that tank like I usually do. My driving typically nets about 43 mpg for the tank fill (usually in the 9-10 gallon fill up) and about 400 plus miles at the one bar blinking. Well, when I got my car the milage read 348 and the gas indicator was blinking. Go to fill it up and it took 10.5 gallons. 33.1 mpg....WTF? I guess she was having flash backs to her vtec prelude days?
