The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for January 01, 2012

Happy New Year to all the Crustwoodians!!Julie Larson, thank you for a year full of fun and allowing us to cut up!!It’s too bad this will be our last year, cuz the Mayan calander says it will be the end of the world in Dec….Waaa, Waaaaa

Burl is looking more and more like “Stubby Kaye”

Woot! woot! Happy 2012, my fellow Crustwoodians!

Happy New Year fellow Crustwoodians! What a great group you are. Indeed, thank you to Julie for creating such a place as this and putting up with people such as us!But back to the strip, it seems that Burl is widening his target zone for 2012. I thought it used to be only Ma he didn’t like. Sisters can be thick, especially twins. This is dangerous territory for Burl to be entering.

Happy New Year to all my Crustwoodian pals here! And a great big THANK YOU to Julie for a great comic!

Bet Jerry and Burl have broken something else already.

Happy New Year, everybody! Sorry I missed the party last night…. just couldn’t make it to Crustwood in time.

I guess that’s OK…. there weren’t enough hats to go around anyway.

Jerry’s chair is appropriately labelled in panel 2.

I guess Verl is what farmers around here call an “easy keeper”, what with her low standards for both boyfriends and “fun.”

If she could only follow the advice on her T-shirt… next year maybe we’d have that nice handyman at the table instead of Jerry.

@Mikie — I’ve never been under the impression Burl really liked anybody, with the possible exception of Joy on her less annoying days.

Right, Radish…. the only way he could have acceptable companions.

And Marg — cute piggy.

But Leaky…. you really wanna start the year off with Debby Downer? :(

Burl shoud have the “Shut Up” cup.<p*Happy New Year, Everyone

I have been known to be outspoken, but not this outspoken. Sometimes I wish I was.

@Susan: Yeah you missed the party, it was fun till I got drunk, decided to do a rumba dance and tipped over the punch bowl. Marg called me a cab and made me leave.

At any rate: Happy New Year Everybody!!

Dave, you’re a cab!!!!! ;-)

Susan, this is the Pig-On-Wheels from the bad years at Dick Tracy.

lol tcayer Behind every dark cloud is a silver lining!! :-))

It appears that BURL’s comment…. is making JOY “smart”…… ? ! ?

Happy 2012 Crustwood…… /* /* /*…. <=(fireworks).Nice to be saying “Bye Bye” to 2011…. ? ! ? !.AND I will add my thanks to Julie….. for making it so much easier to wake up.. with a smile.. and get going each day….! ! !

I think Jerry is accusing us of being the annoying visitors!!

is burl trying to make a joke in his own burlish-churlish way?

happy new year to my favorite group of commentators in crustwoodland

HAPPY LEAP YEAR!!!

Always one of my fave comic strips! By the by, the chair cover should be “Its”, not “It’s” — His, Hers, Its. Gotta get a set of 3 embroidered one of these days.

I was off to bed early last night after my Fledermaus recording and had too many of my Amaretti that I baked on Friday so I will cut back on calories this week).

Leaky! — mine too, of course!
