   That’s because they’re all here in NC; they start blinking even before dark!! Wonderful to sit on the screened porch and watch them.

   I haven’t made banana bread for years (I live alone and don’t need the calories) but this recipe is very much like (if not identical to) the one I used to make when I was younger. I won a blue ribbon at the UP State Fair for that banana bread — especially memorable because my sister (who was the better cook/baker) didn’t!! I won on her turf! We were less than a year apart in age and — in my opinion — had only two genes in common: we were both female and both had blue eyes.

   I agree with the earlier commenters re: the negative comments. If you don’t like the strip: DON”T READ IT!! I don’t remember when I first began reading Cathy, but it was many years ago and I have enjoyed it very much. I hope you enjoy your retirement, Ms. Guisewhite and, should you ever want to return, there are many of us who would be happy to see Cathy again.
