The Argyle Sweater by Scott Hilburn for August 03, 2022

Conjection confection!

I always wanted a grammar like that!

And Grammar is someone’s Antonym!

It’s hard to make out, I think the top one is scrumptious.

That’s just how the synonym rolls!

Synonym rolls – they taste the same but are baked differently.

The Roget Family continues into the latest generation with the boys Peter and Mark. Before they understood fully the family literary tradition, they thought a Thesaurus was a kind of dinosaur.

Freshly baked too!

Scrumptious, Tasty, and Delicious: They really are synonym rolls.

“Can you make ‘Yummy’ and ‘Delectable’ too, Grammar?”

I hope these rolls live up to their names.

Nothing like a delicious puffery.

Granny’s an English teacher.

How yummy!

Ain’t dat abdorible

I’ve been calling them that for years. Shoulda been a cartoonist?

Sounds like a homonym to me

Reminds me of an old joke. A lady rings the doorbell at a friend’s house and is greeted by her young child. She asks “Is your mommy home?”. The kid says “She gone to town”. Lady says “Oh my, where’s your grammar?”. Kid answers “Oh, she be upstairs”.

My Aunt Ruth made antonym buns.

It’s all the same to me. :)

This one made me simile.

Now that’s my kind of Granny!

Welcome to my gingerbread house Alex and Conner and zip up, I can see your dangling participles.

This made me snickerdoodle.

Another really funny one, Scott. I liked a lot of the clever comments, too.

Once again it’s Time for Timer!

what delicious humor…

Much better than those awful gender rolls Grampa makes.

“Grammar” was such a good baker. But she made us tense when she’d subject us to objecting indirectly.

Notice how they are positioned on the tray? They all have synonym roles

ah ha ha, I see what you did there!

Shouldn’t the kid on the right be burning his hand???
