Well, just to let you know, I don’t work for them or anything, I’ve ordered flowers before and I’m on their email list for specials, etc. Just thought this seemed like a nice thing to do for the troops.

Looks like a good idea. Good Lord’s Day, Allegra. Hope you’ve had a quiet day so far.

If they were smart, they would have designed a food bouquet, to send the Troops.
