Living in an enchanted forest with surrealistic landscapes, the engaging characters of Broom Hilda happily have no connection with reality. Other comic characters are extensions or distortions of reality, but Broom Hilda deals in pure fantasy, making the strip bewitchingly unique. Here in the forest, the inhabitants maintain a standard of madness where total irrelevance is the only relevancy. The strip is simply a loony-bin where what’s said and done often makes no sense whatsoever, much to the joy of its millions of fans.

It’s a wonder she’s allowed at all in any of
the town’s dinners.
MARG! It’s gonna miss me by going through
Michigan and then East to New England. Do
you remember the great Mid-west blizzard of
January 1978? Don’t want to see another one
of them. What grade was your daughter in then?

Aye D.J. me mum also had that way of getting two strong cups of tea from a bag when we found ourselves here. I still maintain that there’s nothing like a properly brewed pot of tea. Tell me Debbie dear; If I should become a “follower” of this Dixie-Drive, is there any chance atall of getting a coupon for a free six of Guinness at a local liquor store……or failing that;maybe a writ for a free one at the local pub?
Sure and there’s no harm in the asking.

There’s cheap, and then there’s Broomie. After 1500 years , she should have accumulated some treasure (probably blew it all on alimony)….

There’s less tea in the bags these days and it’s much finer.

I get four mugs of tea from one tea bag. I like it weak and black.

My mother would take a tea bag, dunk it three times into the boiling water and then say “Oh, it’s too strong!”

I know nothing about tea ,sir but would not fine er( aka smaller ) tea leaves give more flavor because of more surface area to steep ?

I’m sorry to break in. But I lived in Flint, MI at that time. My wife(now ex) was going in and out of labor. Stupid Georgia boy left his car in the garage. Called a snow plow and first out of his mouth was give him a couple days. I explained about the labor and he was there in 10 minutes, with a discount, too. Son was born Feb. 3. Water broke about 2am. It was -14 out. Sure wish I had stayed in Georgia.
