It's a walz Jackie, a Viennese waltz with chocolate and whipped cream.

chocolate and whipped cream No, no, Branny, weren't you listening? It's got relish, nectar, and tonic. Yes, you may kill me now.

Yes, yes, sure, but how combine a Viennese walz with relish, nectar and tonic? Very jambolic. Happy J-day!

jambolic laugh I love it! And, thank you. Sorry to be so tardy replying. I have had more-than-a-cold-but-not-quite-the-flu for weeks now, and even now I'm still coughing some. One of those thought-I-was-about-well-then-it-slammed-me-again things. frown
