So incredibly funny, and I have been to Weight Watchers. So I understand fully what is going on here. Clapping now.

Help! There seems no way to escape the calories. Perhaps we should get weighed before we eat... Thanks for giving us some great laughs, Jan. Best wishes in the contest. Hugs, Carolyn
