Hi Dave,


 DD> AFAIK it will be a total surprise to him if he is picked.

 RH> And it sounds like he is well deserving of the award. When will the
 RH> winner be announced?

 DD> Traditionally, right after Turkey Day (last week of November).

 RH> Nice end of the year gift, and in time to make the annual holiday
 RH> letter. (G)

 DD> If he is selected he'll be the only one surprised.

That's usually the case.

 DD> Sprinkles are for kids and birthday celebrations..

 RH> We've got a good number of kids in the church, also other folks that
 RH> like sprinkles.

 DD> I'll eat them if they're already there. But, I never use them as a
 DD> "decoration". Althoough I have used dragees sometimes. The metallic
 DD> balls of silver or gold colour which aren't edible. There is also an
 DD> edible dragee which is *totally* different but could be used, also, as
 DD> a decoration - and not have to be picked off lest one break a tooth.

 DD> Dragee is a French word for a sugar-coated nut or a small
 DD> silver-colored ball used as a decoration. A good start to the week -
 DD> I've learned stuff I'd not kown before.

That's always a good thing. I've never bought/used them for cake
decorating, usually use just icing and sometimes some sprinkles.
