Since its debut in 1979, For Better or For Worse has touched comic strip readers as few cartoons ever do. Cartoonist Lynn Johnston’s eye for detail and her uncanny sense of what real parents and children struggle with daily are a big part of her success. The world has watched the Patterson family grow up in real time, and to many readers, the Pattersons feel like family!
Parents and children alike will relate to the obstacles that the Patterson family faces. Curfews, parent date nights, babysitting, pets and distractions are all hurdles that the Pattersons must overcome in order to enjoy each other as a family. They face the same obstacles that real life families do, which is what makes them so loveable.

No wonder I never wanted to eat at your mother’s place.

Yes they do, GEE1A–we’ve already seen Farley.
Wait till Mike and Liz are teens Elly–you’ll be hankering back to days when there actually were leftovers to store!

On Sunday I made a lovely pancetta wrapped rosemary garlic and thyme- herbed pork roast. Hm, should I make the leftover into a casserole with potato and cheese? Should I stick to roast pork sandwiches? Or should I have fun and make some sort of primavera pasta with it >:)

I never have leftovers. My wife stakes claim to them.

Y’know I finally figured out what seems familiar about her new art style… The Phantom Tollbooth. Anyone else ever read that?

In the fridge the ‘crisper’ is sometimes the ‘rotter’!

Some of that stuff may not be safe to eat since it’s been in there so long. Best to just toss it.

Use the freezer when you can. Put all the veggies etc. into a soup.

Throw outside for compost that will become good fertilers for healthy vegs, plants, etc, etc…

Yup, that’s right! Not good to throw for compost piles.

cuircit7, I don’t know anything about The Phantom Tollbooth.
thevenbede said, 7 months ago
Yeah, Norman Juster wrote The Phantom Tollbooth Jules Feiffer, longtime cartoonist for the New Yorker, & a gazillion other mags illustrated it. It’s the story of a spoiled brat named Milo who drives through tollbooth in a pedal car with a watchdog named Tock. Great kid’s fantasy - lots of language plays…one of the sleazy characters is called the Humbug and he does hum- things like that.
