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.

She is lucky her phone wasn’t taken away.

Looking back on it, my mom was pretty lenient on me and my bedroom. But if it got really messy, she would TELL me I had to clean it. (Asking wasn’t in her vocabulary) She made it clear that having my own bedroom was a privilege, and if I didn’t respect that privilege, I’d find myself with a bratty roommate who could very easily go through my things. Or, she would, when I was at school.

Guess Holly’s “paper” on “Boy Bands” was a success? Hope Joan is sitting down when Holly presents her report card.

Yeah, I wonder what grade Aunt Joan got—is she smarter than an eighth-grader? (Yeah, you’re right, I deserved that dope slap you all just gave me—ANYBODY is smarter than an eighth-grader!)

In my house, her chores would now be doubled.

I can’t imagine as a child, acting like her kids do. I’m only 33, but my parents raised me to be respectful. Maybe it’s just a pet peeve of mine, but this strip really irritates me sometimes. Haha!

My mom threw our stuff out the front bedroom windows into the front yard so as our bus passed in the afternoon we’d be embarrassed as all get out. Worked for a time.

My daughter’s allowance id dependent upon how well she completes her chores. An orderly room is just one of her daily chores.

From yesterday, for those who missed it, my comment was ’Oh fuddle duddle, another kerfeffle! hence the Canadian reference.
