Answer:  PICTURE PERFECT

(Not bad.  No new clue words today.  Except for “citant” all of the jumbles came up as new, for me.  I thought that the jumble for “celery” was fairly challenging.  I wasn’t crazy about today’s answer letter layout.  Starting out with ICUR gave me PICTURE, right away!  Cute cartoon.  Taking photos, when it comes to kids, is always a chore.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  Rest In Peace, Frank Gifford!  You were an all-time great player, a fine announcer, and a truly class act!  A great ambassador for the New York Giants and the NFL!   —   YUR

“If there was no faith there would be no living in this world.  We couldn’t even eat hash in safety.”   —   Josh Billings

(Josh is one of my very favorite quote-sters!  The funny thing is, I’m not even sure I was aware of him until I started solving these cryptoquotes.  I’m sure I knew some of his famous sayings, but I probably thought they came from from Twain or Rogers.  I’m glad I haven’t stopped learning things!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
