Maybe a variation on peppermint ice cream? That's always seemed celebratory to me.

Or maybe a new combination... Orange/Banana/Apple/Mint/Amaretto

They could call it "Refreshing Change"

Whew. I am diabetic, and just reading this has made my blood sugar spike! I will celebrate with a chicken fried steak and cream gravy which I only eat a few times a year because it so BAD for you.

WOW! Less than 100 hours, somehow the time seems shorter when expressed in hours rather than days. Regardless of the outcome I imagine all 4 candidates are looking forward to sleeping in Wednesday morning.
