Mmmmm – reminds me, I haven’t made homemade mac & cheese for a while. Maybe sometime this week I will make a small batch. Hubby’s favourite is if I follow the Welsh rarebit recipe and then stir in macaroni and bake.
I’m surprised no one has posted Lynn’s Notes:This strip was missing for some reason. All we had in our archives was a newspaper clipping, and it had been edited down to fit into smaller format. Eventually, we did get our hands on a print with the top panels included. I redrew the whole thing (so Kevin could do the colouring and send it to the syndicate) and took the liberty of changing the punch line. What I wanted to do was connect “rat race” and “running through a maze” (like a mouse) with CHEESE! The original punch was weak: “We’re having cheese”. I mean, other than a rodent, who makes a meal out of just cheese? I think the new ending works better, but it’s still a stretch! This is an example of when I had a workable idea but couldn’t quite figure out how to word it!
Definitely not rewarding for me. But to each her own. Some really enjoy it. My friend’s husband is a great SAHD. I started working PT a few months ago and have less time to do the same work and am still happier and have more energy! I know the shine wears off after a while- after the first 10 years of my old job- but I still love work!

Actually, just think of the effort involved in doing tiny, little sculptures, in a wet, cramped, dark, moving environment.
Dentists deserve credit for some of the least-appreciated Art-work ever done!

Sounds tasty to me. Quick your complaining many people are out of work and you are gainfully employed.

Just had some REALLY good mac & cheese with the family over the holidays. Small world.

Cute! When we have mac and cheese, we have it as a side dish. We just had it as part of Christmas dinner.

The third choice: she’s making a joke by telling him that cheese is on the menu, since he’s talking about feeling like he’s a trapped rat…
