Pre-Answer:  Three Words  (6-letters) (4-letters) (7-letters)

Answer:  CRUNCH SOME NUMBERS

(A nice, long, Jumble pun!  17 letters.  I’m not THE biggest fan of peanut brittle, but I’ll eat it on occasion.  All of today’s clue words are old favorites.  But, all of the jumbles came up as new.  The answer letter layout was a very impressive, and cryptic, jumble.  I wouldn’t be surprised if it stumped some of you.  The cartoon was mildly reminiscent of the I Love Lucy episode, where Lucy and Ethel get the job at the candy factory.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
