This sounds so good, but I haven't got the ingredients so thought I would

try substituting....peanuts for the almonds, canned pineapple for the

mandarin. I am hoping it will work as I think it sounds wonderful especially

for sitting out in the back yard smelling the lilacs and watching the birds

nesting and the squirrels scampering. I love my new house! (well it is old).
