The Lockhorns by Bunny Hoest and John Reiner for February 07, 2025

I like baked potato. I sometimes even eat the skins.

Less chance of her ruining that than a cake.

What was she doing that she had no time to bake a cake? Overspending? Wrecking the car?

The only way I like baked potatoes is if they’re smothered in sour cream. Yummy!

With Loretta’s cooking, every day is ‘Happy Burp Day’ for poor Leroy.

Haven’t you heard about the Publix bakery?

Healthier choice. :)

Potato cake.

and then home fries the next day

As long as bacon and cheese are involved, I’m good with the baked tater on my birthday.

For as long as it takes to oven bake a tater, she could’ve made a cake

A half baked idea.

Four minutes in the microwave, easy-peasy, even for Loretta.

Why are they eating at home on a birthday? Go out to eat so you get a good birthday dinner. And be sure to order dessert.

I don’t have time for a baked potato so I’m going to the bar.

Less chance of Loretta screwing up a baked potato.

It’s called a supermarket

I’ll take a baked potato over a crummy cake any day.

Micro-bake. 10 minutes in the microwave, another 15 in the oven, and the potato comes out perfect.
