This was succinct, and appropriate. The photo looks like either a gum wrapper on spittle or a gum wrapper on a doily. Either way, it works for me.

Thanks, Caren. We were walking on St Simons Island beach at low tide and came upon this Juicy Fruit gum wrapper surrounded by sea foam bubbles. I took the photo with my iPhone :)
