Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for May 01, 2013

Perfect.

I love Val

Holly – no!

Holly had better marry a rich man. She is too delicate to do anything.

Love it!! What goes around comes around!!

Walk the dog: one hour. Empty and reload the dishwasher: ten minutes. I don’t think Holly has anything to complain about, she still got 50 minutes of freedom at a rate of one cent a minute.

Can you say, Back Fire?.\\//_

my sister used to be an expert at avoiding helping with the dishes. She always had to go to the bathroom just when it was time to dry the dishes. Once my mom washed all the dishes and I dried all of them and the silverware and then Mom had me go knock on the bathroom door and tell her she could come out now, the dishes were done. Of course she came out all “what?, I had to go”…then she discovered Mom had left all the pots and pans for her to WASH and DRY. She still pulled her disappearing act some but not as much.

Now days she is a regular Suzie Homemaker, neat freak.

I’d have rather walked the dog.

About time that Holly got hoisted by her own petard!!

That’s what ya get for outsourcing.

Now we understand why Alix took the dog walking chore so cheaply.

Ooh burn!

Not happening Holly.

Holly needs a better business plan.

While this is day 3 of a 2008 rerun week of Feb. 2008 Stone Soup strips, yesterday’s 2008 rerun had a word replaced (Twitter instead of MySpace).
