Morning Rich,

Thanks for the update.  I can think of nothing more decadent than eating Poutine while listening to a Barbershop quartet (on a dam ship!).

Are barbers open around you?  I had to take the sheep shears to my head during the week.

Good morning.

Thank you for the Daily Report.

Poutine, sounds great.  Not good for my waistline, but tasty.

YOLO! Poutine sounds like a good|bad idea. That's a treat when shelter-in-place/quarantine/lockdown/social distancing ends.

Stay safe

Stay Healthy!

Thanks for the Daily!  National Poutine Day . . . . hmmm, will have to check the fridge to see if I've got ingredients for that; if not, I could always just pour a glass of wine and think of poutine!    Happy Saturday everyone, stay well!

 

Smooth Sailing! 🙂🙂🙂

Koningsdam is on the move.  We may be getting the transit through the Canal shortly.😊

Thank you for today’s report, Rich!  Morning mid amigas!
 

I have some leftover eggplant Florentine that I need to finish tonight. But I am intrigued by “sweet potato toss”. Will need to look up that recipe.

 

Ah, the harmony of BSQ. I bet I can find some on YouTube.

 

Stay well, everyone!

Thank you for the report.  Ok, not the problem date but the 50'th anniversary of the launch of Appolo 13.

Thank you for the Fleet report.

 

Sorry I am late.

 

Just watched them make Poutine on Guy's Grocery Games the other evening.  Looks delicious.  O have ingredients for that -- will make it for dinner as a side dish with our salads.

 

VMax 1700  -- what a great job you did cutting your hair with sheep shears.  DH hasn't had a hair cut since Feb and won't be getting one this month.  He doesn't have a lot of hair but he does have, does need trimming.  That will be my job this coming week -- with regular scissors.

Thanks for the info.

Good morning Rich, friends and mi amigos.

A beautiful morning here in north Idaho, 23 degrees warming to 48 today!

In Sept 2019 we took the Gem from Quebec to Boston. I ate poutine and lobster for 10 glorious days! I brought a few pounds home with me under my belt..

Have a great day!

Thank you for the Daily fleet report Rich!

Thank for the fleet report.

Thanks for the daily, Rich 🙂 

Poutine - yum.  I may just splurge and make some tonight.

I just happen to have the right gravy for it 😉 

[DeeniEncinitas]

Good morning all!! 
Rich today is poutine day? I wish I could say yum! I am not a fan. 🙄 I guess I am the odd ball! The closest thing for me with French fries is when we were in Tier Germany husband on business we enjoyed 

getting there style of French fries in a paper cone and they would place mayo on them👍  Everyone enjoy your day!

Dos Amigas Joy and Cat, happy hour finally outside for us tonight outside and sunset on the water! Finally no more rain!

Good morning, and thank you Rich.  I have been watching the Koningsdam in the Panama Canal.  It's nice that she will be able to make a daylight transit, unlike Rotterdam and Zaandam, who what to race through under cover of darkness!

[lindaler]

Thanks for the report Rich. I have no idea what poutine is. I will have to look that up. See, I am always learning something from you guys.

Post 12 is a cartoon about soft shoes. I thought you were talking about a pudding but post 13 has what looks like chili fries. Is that poutine?  Who wouldn’t like that?

It's french fries, cheese curds, and brown gravy.

[rafinmd]

OK, post 13.  Those little numbers are hard to read.

What does a cheese curd taste like?

It tastes like cheddar, but kinda waxy. Try it sometime.
