Garfield by Jim Davis for February 24, 2023

Yes, Liz. You can bring food.

the pizzaman’s number? and any coupons you might have!

To add to the fire extinguisher, how about some antacids, a stomach pump, and a colonic irrigator?

Why all the negativity? All that lasagna Garfield ate without question had to come from SOMEWHERE… :D :D :D

Jon and cooking ? … That’s a disaster waiting to happen.

“Tums, Tum-Tum-Tum, Tums!”

Either a pizza from a restaurant or Chinese takeout since Jon’s been known to suck at cooking. Sometimes he gets things right but not always.

And a video camera.

What cha cookin, doc?

He cooks just like my mother, hell she even burnt water more times than not!

Ipecac….

I sense very little faith in Jon’s cooking. That’s odd.

wow with the endorphin eyes in frame 3

she’s got it baaad

Alert the fire department

A carry out pizza?

A big bag of takeout wouldn’t be a bad idea, either. Especially if you’d like anything edible.

I hope he doesn’t forget the soup.

pizza

how about the fire department. :D

If Jon cleans too, marry him, Liz.

Pepto-Bismol and plenty of it?

Say a neglige Jon, a neglige…

They should bring back up food.

Maybe the phone number for Papa John’s, or Domino’s, or Little Caesars, or whatever your favorite pizza chain is.

Or, Liz, you might just bring along, oh, how do you say, food. Maybe, four KFC dinners to go comes to mind.

The nearest hospital on speed dial?

Jon’s cooking skill is probably the least consistent thing in Garfield comics.

Garfield and Liz are starting to funny together when they make fun of Jon.

don’t forget to preheat the oven, Jon

“OOO!”

(wonders about the pronunciation of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon; imagines a different version of that very part)

OHHH…

Liz shouldn’t get her hopes up. With Jon doing the cooking, count on something either burned or undercooked.

yeah, the WHOLE DINNER as Garfield mentioned Jon will burn the food…

Does anyone really thing that Jon can cook dinner? He can’t operate a can opener without getting hurt for heavens sake.

“a pizza”

Jon doesn’t get any respect in regards to cooking, does he? He’s actually made great lasagna in the past, and that dinner of meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and peas that he’s usually seen eating before Garfield steals it doesn’t look all that bad at all.

Garfield may be paid back for his fire extinguisher wisecrack when he celebrates his forty-fifth birthday in July (also the month in which Fred Basset celebrates his sixtieth birthday).

Garfield, I was thinking the same thing. Jon should have a fire extinguisher in every room…

the number of the fire department.

Yeah Liz. you’ll need Alka Seltzer.

A fire extinguisher? :D

I used to love cooking foods. In the old days I used to buy cookbooks and found some old ones from 1890 or something that fell apart and tried to make the recipes in them. Someday when I get money, I want to get a place with a huge kitchen so I can experiment. After that I will need some volunteers to try and help me, um, taste test the food I created.

An exorcist?

I’m a better cook than the wife yet she very rarely lets me cook. Oh, I also clean up after myself better than the wife. She wants to be in control, so ce la vie…..

Jon: USE AN INSTAPOT. NO CHANCE OF FIRES.

lol

She should bring dinner.

I made a rather basic meme on my FB based on recent true events. Took a photo of our smoke alarm, added an explanation and wrote underneath “Alexa, please notify me when the French fries are ready “

Ah, Liz wants to bring something, so that is proof that Jon and Liz maintain separate households. There was a period where she was around so much, I began to wonder if she had moved in. Granted, that would be a rather surprising development in a strip that tries to avoid anything remotely controversial, but I did begin to wonder.

She should bring a “just-in-case” meal…

A stomach pump might be useful

Liz, talk to Garfield. He’s got every pizza place in town on his phone.

Maybe swing by Costco for the biggest container of Rolaids they got.

Jeepers Creepers, where did Liz and Garfield get those peepers?

Jon, when are you going to marry Liz?

A fire extinguisher… and an antacid just in case.

Good one, Liz!

This is basically what I would have brought with me if Jon was the cook as well.

Oh nooo…
