Good morning.

Thank you for the Daily Report.

I'll be planting some things in my vegetable garden soon, it's starting to warm up here!☀️

And devil's food cake sounds good too.

Cheers to drinking Canada Dry.🥂

Stay healthy.

Thank you for the Daily Report.

[Krazy Kruizers]

Thank you Rich for the Daily report.

 

Devil's food cake -- just finished it last night -- DH's birthday cake.

 

No planting gardens around here.

 

Having chicken and noodles for dinner.

Thanks Rich for our daily update.

Garden is already planted, but still need some more to replace what the animals eat 😀

I still have Red Velvet cake to finish up.

I love the Canada Dry quote, I remember being at the Tower of London and having one of the Beefeaters make the same remark.

Thanks for the Daily! Canada Dry is really the best ginger ale around and I'm pretty sure Devil's Food Cake is my national food, so that just might be dinner tonight.  And wine.

 

Smooth Sailing!  🙂🙂🙂

Thank you for today’s Daily, Rich! Good morning my fellow Dailyites! Denise & Joy hope all Is well! Lots happening with personal or family moves for you two!

 

I wonder when International Key Lime pie is? Not that I do not like devil’s food cake.
 

My neighborhood critters would eat my veggie garden before I had a chance to enjoy the fruits of my labor, so I will stick with my local Farmer’s market.

 

I am doing eggplant cutlets tonight with homemade sauce and roasted veggies. I am going to try out my local gym this afternoon to see how well they are managing the reduced capacity reopening. I have a few pounds to lose - they just appeared out of nowhere!😱

 

Stay well everyone!

Good Morning Rich:

Thank you for posting the Daily.

Things are wet here in The peoples Republic of Illinois.

[summer slope]

Good morning.  Thank you for the report Rich.  Wish we could watch them sail in and out of Port Everglades....or any webcam.

Sadly, today must be "Patience is a virtue day".  National Key Lime Pie day is not until September 26.  I hope (but doubt) the daily will be going to more mundane things by then.

Good morning Rich, thanks for the Daily. Fun reading quote of the day.

 

Cat and Denise, I got up at 2:30 am yesterday and started packing with a vengeance. Had chores and errands and realized it was dinner time!

 

Allen wants fish tonight. Cat eggplant cutlets sounds great. I need to try them sometime. 

 

Everyone take care, don't go crazy out there, we're still not out of the woods. Xx

[fatcat04]

Thank you for the Daily!

 

I need to plant a few more vegatables once the rain clears. Temps are good for it now. Firmly in the 70's. 

 

As a kid, my mom started me drinking Canada Dry on airplane trips. Pretty much the only place I ever had it. Not until I was older did I understand why. It is good for settling a wobbly tummy. So now it is a tradition I have passed on to my own brood and yes, the taste of Canada Dry makes me think of travel. I love that. 

 

We get to go out to eat tonight (queue the angelic choir). We are all prepared with our masks, wipes, and Purell, or " Paper Cut Detecting Gel" as we call it. Looking forwards to someone else cooking.

Love Devils food cake & Canada Dry is about the only pop I drink, except coke in my Captain Morgan Dark rum.

We got the veg garden mostly done over the weekend.  And I do have a Devil's Food Cake mix in the house.  Thanks @richwmn

Whenever the fleet gets back to a regular schedule, I doubt that I will be allowed to omit the quotes and meals.

 

[Vict0riann]

Thanks for the Daily, Rich.  I was wondering about those lighter nachos, Copper!  Now I know....  

 

I prefer wine, but if I have to, I'll drink Canada dry.

 

 

Forgot to say, my lettuce is already starting to bolt, and my beans have sprouted (all in pots, as we just have a little courtyard.)

You have set the bar high. Thanks Rich for all you do. It does create a bright spot in the day.

Thank you @fatcat04 that should just be enough!😎

I guess, in a pinch, any wine will do!
