Cartoon Saturday


Before we begin, let me state definitively that I did not collude with any foreign power or entity on the selection of these cartoons. Now that that's out of the way ...

A sinkhole in Florida* that swallowed two houses appears to have stopped expanding, having reached a size of about 250 by 225 feet and 50 feet deep, and appears to be full of chemicals and septic tank fluid; the meeting between Donald Trump, Jr, and Russians who offered to give the Trump campaign information damaging to Hillary Clinton's candidacy last year is being called a "Democratic plot" by the wildly-spinning pro-Trump media; during his visit to France for Bastille Day celebrations, Donald Trump again demonstrated his remarkable command of diplomacy by telling the wife of French President Emmanuel Macron, "You're in such good shape. She's in such good physical shape. Beautiful" ... what a charmer; and at least three people have been killed in a huge fire in a high-rise Honolulu apartment building.

Enough with the bad news ... on to the cartoons! Agnes and I love to cook, and so it seems appropriate to share a collection of cartoons about food and drink ...

Oui! ...


One drawback of GMOs ...


I think I'll have something else, thank you ...


Speaking of backhanded compliments ...


How mom cooks ... 


I'm looking for this food truck ...


Well, yes, it would be ...


When the eggs really, really need to be poached ...


I make substitutions like this, too ...


I think we have some things like this in the back of our refrigerator, too ...


And that's it for this edition of Cartoon Saturday. It's being published over a data connection with my cell phone because we returned yesterday from our trip to Chincoteague Island to find out that we have no land-line telephone, television, or internet service ... and our provider can't have anyone out to fix the problem until this afternoon. Oy.

Have a good day and a great weekend. More thoughts tomorrow.

* No, not Mar-a-Lago, a different sinkhole.

Ah the back of the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Land of the lost.

Rum makes many recipes better.

Sometimes I cook with rum. Other times I put the rum in the food.
