So many questions! Such as: would Cezanne himself have enjoyed depicting these party-goers? Why is it *Water* on the label, but *Club Soda* in the text? Finally, do I park this picture in the album of soft drinks or the album of booze?

From the October issue of Better Homes & Gardens magazine.

Some other chapter headings:
