MLS is back!

While I’m working, I really like listening to sports on Pluto TV. I usually bounce back and forth between four main channels: Surf TV, Red Bull TV, Bein Sports Extra, and the MLS channel. This afternoon on the MLS channel, we stumbled across the selection show for the upcoming MLS IS BACK tournament which will be held in Orlando…

They drew the groups for the east first. FC Cincinnati drew Group E…

Hilariously, Columbus Crew drew Group E as well…

So there will be a matchup of the Hell is Real derby in Orlando…

In the west, my very favorite MLS club, Minnesota United drew Group D…

Also hilariously, Group F contains both teams from Los Angeles…

And the best part is all the matches will be televised…

The best summers are always the World Cup summers, followed closely by the Euro Championship summers. More than likely, this tournament won’t have the same talent level or probably the same drama as national team tournaments but it should still be a lot of fun to watch. Especially after four months without any sports at all.

And I can’t wait! Come on you Loons! 😀⚽️🏆❤️

Our Friday morning.

Good morning from Northside…

Before I started work this morning, we ran to Kroger to get some groceries…

Kroger had restocked their Shining Stars…

I noticed some more oddities while we were grocery shopping…

And then we went to Biggby for coffee…

And today we had a Biggby coupon for half off their Bragel breakfast sammiches…

What a great way to start a Friday before getting to work. 😀🛍️☕️❤️

Sunny Blu Coffee is back!

We noticed on the social media that Sunny Blu Coffee had reopened after an extended hiatus during the COVID-19 shutdown. So before we started working this morning, we ran down to Camp Washington to start of the day with some delicious Sunny Blu…

On Thursday mornings from 7-9am is Sunny Blu customer appreciation. They were giving every customer a free turkey sausage egg and cheese croissant with purchase…

You can’t beat that! I’m so happy Sunny Blu is back open. Genifer had a caramel latte and I had an iced hot chocolate. Their stuff is sooo good.

On our way back to the car, I finally got to check out CampSITE…

And when we got home, we tore into our free breakfast sammiches…

YUM! I know where we’ll be next Thursday if we don’t make it back over to Camp Washington before then. 😀☕️🥐❤️

Look up in the sky.

Good morning from Northside. It was a little overcast this morning…

This evening we went on our walk a bit early because the sky looked a bit threatening…

Good evening from Northside…

But when we went out in our backyard a bit later, we had blue skies again…

The weather, am I right? 😀☁️❤️

It’s what’s for dinner.

We had another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Chipotle Pork Meatballs with cilantro rice and cotija cheese…

Those meatballs had a heat to them that kept building as you continued eating. But it had an incredible flavor. Overall, it was just another really delicious dinner.

We really like the Kroger Prep+Pared Home Chef Express meal kits a lot. 😀🥡❤️
