Peanuts by Charles Schulz for January 13, 2013

Musicians never want to think about selling their instruments to buy saucepans.

Naturally, Lucy is only thinking about herself.

Sell your instrument under your own terms son, never get married! Your art comes first!

True artists sell their saucepans to buy a piano.I remember the days when the big wedding gift was a set of real silver tableware…always set out at the reception for admiration. They don’t do that anymore.

Beethoven got by just fine without Töpfe.

Saucepans. She probably grew up to be a lousy cook.

SAUCEPANS?

Notice how the Schroeder saucepan looks almost like Charlie Brown. They had the same curl in front. Without Schroeder’s longer hair- and with that round shape- it’s hard to tell. The only other difference is the size of the nose.

Bang on saucepans as musical instruments! It’s win-win.

True, Lucy… But get this in your head once and for all.

SCHROEDER IS NEVER GOING TO MARRY YOU!

I notice he’s not rejecting any of this out of hand. And “never” is a really long time.

You know this seems so materialistic, it’s not even funny!

Saucepans= sauce pots, or as my Cockney father used to say it “sore spots.”

saucepans nuff said.

Lucy is getting saucy w/out the sauce.
