Jan Eliot's funny and irreverent Stone Soup follows the saga of an extended, blended family, starring two working-mom sisters living just across the fence from each other. Val and Joan share life with their opinionated mother, a middle-school diva and 10-year-old tomboy, a reclusive teenage boy, a wild preschooler and his new baby sister...and of course Wally, the ultimate nice guy who steps into his stepdad shoes with grace amid the chaos. Working-parent hassles, pre-school tantrums, middle-school angst, love and the single mom... it's all here in Stone Soup.

“wasted on an old MARRIED couple*
.
Sort of like a married couple going to a drive in movie is kind of a wasted experience.

Wait. I thought the Parisian trip was going to be happening DURING Christmas.

Better than wasted on a young ingrate.

Having done the Paris thing as a part of a married couple, Wally is doing it right in leaving the kids behind. Our two young ones came along, so in addition to needing to be with the tour we were kind of crimped when it came to any “additional activities”.

I think he’s supposed to tell her at Christmas.

There’s a song about Paris in April (perhaps it is Paris in the Springtime). A couple who knew the songwriters did go to Paris in April, and came back spitting mad! Grey skies, rain, cold, wet—nothing like the song! They returned and confronted the songwriters about ’April in Paris." The songwriters looked abashed and said “Well, it should have been May, but the song needed a spring month with two syllables!”

Nice to see ‘Val’ and ‘Mom’ got out of that ‘sticky wicket’ with Joan. Although, the look on ’Joan’s’ face in the last panel yesterday, looks like she knew ’Val’and ‘Mom’ were trying to
‘weasel’ out of something. The ’cat’s out of the bag’.

Try Paris with a baby or small child in the off-season. People are nicer when they’re not over-run with tourists and they thought my 15 month old son was adorable (31 years ago). It was a great family vacation.

Careful now; you don’t know who you might be insulting. :)
One of my cousins was the male lead dancer at the Moulin Rouge for several years. Unfortunately, I didn’t evolve with the same graceful genes he did…

Ah, the arrogance of youth. Each generation thinks they are the ones that discovered romance, love, and all the intense feeling that make up adult life. Have pity on th poor girl. She will never know of how love matures and gets better as a couple share both the good things and bad things that comes into their lives.

Sounds like sour grapes to me…
