(Even the horse is looking at her like:  Calm down, girl!  Cute cartoon and a cute Jumble.  No new clue words, but a lot of great jumblings.  I really liked  “legfun” and “shhart” and “lisaye”.  The answer letter layout was fantastic, but the answer was pretty much a forgone conclusion.  It’s one of the most popular expressions in the American lexicon.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  Happy Birthday to Nigella Lawson.  She got a lot of men interested in cooking shows.   —   YUR
