That sounds heavenly. I always wondered what exactly Irish Cream was and was always positive that whatever I could buy in a supermarket with that label was not going to do it justice. But this sounds exactly like what I would like to put in my coffee (I suppose I should qualify that with after dinner and not in my travel mug :-P). Oh my. That sounds heavenly.

Can't wait to try your motion potion, and by the way, when you two moved back, that was the only win we cared about. .. Much love as you woo the world,...we are so proud and in awe (of both) of your accomplishments.
