Thank you for the TGIF Daily, Rich.  Lazy Mothers sounds like a contradiction of terms to me.  My College Colors are Green and White.  Skyscrapers are awesome but can also be scary.  A special salute to Food Banks.  I love both Berlin and his quote.  Have not been to Bordeaux and will pass on the bass.

Good morning to all. I see bats at night here and I am glad that they stay high up in the trees and eat insects.I rarely use salt but love herbs in my cooking

The recipe sounds great but we are  grilling veggies and burgers for our extended  family tonight.It is cool and cloudy today.

@kazu,enjoy your family visit!I have DB and DSIL stopping by for lunch tomorrow  and so look forward to it.

 

Someday I will see the Panama Canal.

 

I am also very worried  about all the people  in Ida's path as well as all of those trying to get out of Afghanistan.

We were in Kauai during our Hawaiian cruise on Grand Princess and the movie tour was excellent.

We visited the site where Blue Hawaii,Gilligan's Island and could see where South Pacific was filmed as well as lots of other interesting movie locations.

🙏Prayers for everyone on the care list's.

Thank you for an interesting daily Rich and care reports Roy.

It was my Father in laws 13th memory yesterday since he died of cancer in 2008.

Cheesecake is lovely.

Not sure what the drink is.

We have never been to Alaska.

We should all ensure good conduct at all times.

International friendship Day is important and practiced excellently on here.

We have had a lovely lunch in a nice hotel.

You both look great. Jim

Thank you for today's daily and care reports.

Alicante is nice and close to Benidorm a popular seaside resort.

It is 75°F and hot enough for us.

Today's quote was us but now we like taking it easy and sitting under our beach shelter on the beach.

Paulines late mam was a glamorous gran and her last cruise was 9 year's ago on her 90th birthday.

Love your photos. Jim.

Thank you for today's daily and care reports.

Meal and wine of the day sounds lovely.

Now we are both part retired we don't worry about deadlines.

New friends day was a few weeks ago when I joined this fantastic friendly thread.

Malaga is one of our favourite ports.

Our favourite hotel the Vincci Aleysa is a 20 minutes drive away in Benalmadena where we have stayed many times and where we went 4 weeks after my December 2019 mild heart attack in January 2020 with our Sarah and Pauline and Sarah's best friend.

It is currently 12.25pm and 78°F in our garden where hopefully we will be relaxing for the rest of the day.

Take care and stay safe everyone.
