Nancy Classics by Ernie Bushmiller for June 10, 2019

When did this strip become so sour?

Panel 2 would make a great avatar for one of those people who want to complain about comics all the time.

Nancy: Of course – that’s the three-cent batch. The one with sugar is ten cents…

My favorite sounds-awful-but-tastes-great lemonade recipe..

Four cups water.

One cup lemon juice.

Maple Syrup or Honey or Unrefined Sugar, between half a cup and one cup.

Cayenne Pepper powder, one eighth to one fourth teaspoon.

Serve iced.

I actually use close to twice the amount of cayenne, but that’s just me.

Close down and back to square one

Love the haircut on the young sailor!

About 2 years ago, I was driving through a neighborhood and saw a lemonade stand. Since I had one as a child, I thought I’d contribute to the business education of a child. Paid my dollar for a cup of lemonade and after the transaction, the child disappeared into the house. The lemonade had no sugar!

1949…When 3¢ was real money!

1- POPEYE JR: Four gallons of water and a single lemon. I bet it’s good! 2- Ugh. I lost that bet. 3- NANCY: If you want to complain… 4- …go to the next booth down. There’s some girl who’ll listen to all your stupid problems for 5 cents. If you can get that round headed kid away from her that is.

That kid’s haircut is strangely modern.

Sailor hat kid has a Three Rocks Fade Cut !!

The arrogant businesswoman syndrome.

What no sugar? You added salt by mistake?
