THE FOOD CRITIC WAS BEHIND IN HIS RESTAURANT REVIEWS BECAUSE HE HAD: 

LETOMHOUIAPNCOSTH =  TOO MUCH ON HIS PLATE 

Mike: This one’s for you…🥘 🍷

Good morning, Mike, good morning, Everyone. What’s SUP?
Ah, Food! Who doesn’t LOAF Food? And so THYMEly…Mike and I were just talking food last night! As a dedicated Foodie, I’m EGGcited, from my head TOMATOES about this puzzle, so LETTUCE CELERYbrate, and dig right in! 

We’ve got some subLIME scrambles this morning; we’ve seen them in the PAST-Ah, with mayPEA a few new twists. I’d say Fathom and Asthma apPEAR to look the most appEELing. But, overall, easy, PEASy. ORANGEing our letters, was I the only one who saw Mouth, and figured, “Oh, the five letter word CANNOLI be Mouth”? HA…NACHO! I did FRY it, but staying with it would have KALEd me! It wasn’t MINT to be! ROLLing along, I concenTRAYted on the dialogue between the critic and the waiter. A-MAIZEing hints here, and then the question was even BUTTER. “Being behind”…summed it up. We’ve all BEAN there, BITEing off more then we can CHEW, and then telling ourselves, “WHEAT a minute, WHEAT a minute, I’m completely BOWLed over! I can’t KETCHUP! I DONUT what to do!” Not the best way to live OLIVES! We KNEAD to SLOE down, be more RAISINable, and ROMAINE in control of our THYME. We deserve the PEAS and quiet…

Eye CANDY today? No big DILL. The male diner looks like Tom Bosley. The female, should we even TACO ’bout it? (Let’s start calling her the B in P..blonde in purple)! She does seem to recognize the critic though. I got ‘NUTin here, perhaps one of you can shed some light. A PENNE for your thoughts. Last but not YEAST, the waiter. CURRIES me back. He looks like someone from my family tree, a few generations removed. Too OutDATEd. Does anyone still look like this? BEETS me. But I think I’ll choose him. Just for the HALIBUT. 

It’s Sunday, Funday! HONEY, DEW TURNIP the music, and get up and dance! 

LENTIL tomorrow….🍝 🙋🏻
