If we are talking about peanut butter, we better talk about jelly or jam. So do you say jam or jelly? And what flavor? Ha! Now I am hungry for some peanut butter and jelly toast!:butterfly:

Confused! Over here Jam is a spread (what you'd eat with peanut butter) and Jelly is the colourful wobbly kids dessert.... so many things I stumble across in Sai King's books that I've never heard of before!

In Canada we call that Jello or gelatin - I love that stuff with whipped cream.

Jelly is a clear spread like grape jelly which is delicious or even apply jelly - just flavour and colour but no chunks of fruit.

In Scotland I got confused while serving at a restaurant. A local doctor asked if we had any pudding at the end of his meal and my first thought was Jello pudding! (He meant 'dessert')

Our Jam is similar but usually with real fruit pieces..... That Jell-O pudding or dessert (whichever) - who cares coz that stuff looks sooooooooooooooo good! Wonder how much it costs to get one sent to NZ!!!! haha

Please allow me to CLARIFY that in the U.S.,
JELLO-is flavored gelatin.
JELLY & JAM-are pretty much interchangeable, both being gel spread.
PRESERVES-is jellied spread with fruit pieces.
I hope this helps! :)

and one more just to keep us on track. On your website for the Revival book tour there is a picture of Stephen with a guitar that he has obviously had customized on the fretboard. My question is what guitar is that? I know it's an acoustic and probably not an accoustic/electric but I'm interested to know what guitar it is (e.g. brand and model).

Here's his response:

"It's a Farrington. I didn't order it that way; they did it up special when I ordered the guitar. Acoustic-electric."
