Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for December 13, 2022

At least a scone or some biscuits.

Alice is a marvelous, resilient character. She really is a noblewoman brought low by circumstances she was unable to control. Her innate kind soul has always been manifest.

She and Elmont are so complementary of each other. And parceled out in good proportion to each other.

Let Alice raid the fridge while you make tea.

Wonder what Jeremy paid the “agent” with? My guess was a Klondike Bar.

Maybe Mario left some quiche or left-over filet mignon in the ice box. Help yourself, sis.

Alice likes being a companion.And it helps that the heating system is working.

She’s going to want the “full tea”, not just that brown stuff in a cup. :)
