Pickles by Brian Crane for October 25, 2015

Can you blame Opal, Earl, for chocoholism?

We love chocolate chips cookies. Never got into eating just the chips. The dough is good, though. LOL

Wait, Opal can drive? Then why does she insist on Earl going to the fabric store with her?

But yes, many a bag of chocolate chips have disappeared in my house this way.

Chocoholic. She’s addicted to chocohol.

Cookie dough? Na. I wait till they’re cookies. THEN they’re MINE!

As a golf instructor said on my first lesson, “Chip away.”

I love chocolate chip cookies so much, I am surprised that some church hasn’t tried to get them banned.

Always buy the Semi-sweet.

@zofy yes, left-wing government – they know what’s best for you!

When I want something a little sweet and don’t want to bake, a handful of chocolate chips and walnut pieces hits the spot! You go, Opal!

The church was the first government in many countries – they kept the royals in line(some) Religion and politics is really the same thing – a group wanting control of the masses.

Earl should hide that new bag. That way Opal won’t eat it up.

Being a “Chocoholic” is much better than being an “Alcoholic”

Not saying that Earl is an alcoholic of course.

My favourite chocolate is Galaxy.

You can buy good-quality chocolate chips cheaper than the chocolate in the candy aisle.

Did Nestle pay for the product placement?

Nobody seems to remember the Sunday Strip where Opal sat in the car fretting about that old fart going off and forgetting her while she had collected all her groceries etc, while he sat at home answering young Nelson’s question about ’where’s gramma?’ with; ‘I dunno, she’s gone shopping by herself today!’ A refrigerator classic.

And the right wing govrnment too

Evaporation.Happens all the time with candy around here.
