This post sent me over to the liquor cabinet.... thinking that kirsch was
low in alcohol content.... it is not too bad - 18%, but even so, wouldn't
the alcohol burn off?  no matter... 18% and a Tupperware party... yeah, that
sets the scene for me.

Cheers,
Sam (back from the liquor cabinet - and not empty handed)
