Dog Eat Doug by Brian AndersonAbout The Dinette Set
Julie Larson began writing The Dinette Set comic in 1990, then called Suburban Torture, offering a satire on middle class culture. The Dinette Set became syndicated in 1997. When asked where Julie gets all of her ideas, she admits there is only one way to write a daily comic: write about what you know. "I make no bones about who’s really talking in The Dinette Set," says Julie, who is writer, director and cast of The Dinette Set. "If we can’t make fun of ourselves, who will?"

Think that might be deliberate, Runar?
Once again, they have the coffee cups mixed up. Must be a running gag.
“Fannie May” brownies? Hmmm…
And everyone knows Morton salt tastes so much better than generic salt. Better ingredients. Worth the price. ;-)

You know, I didn’t notice that. It’s a great play on words!!
What do you make of the “Stolen Keys” key pegs? I don’t understand that.

The key hanger is also a running gag. Sometimes it says: “Keys to Friends’ Houses”. The 911 stickers by the phone change all the time, too.
