The Buckets by Greg Cravens for November 08, 2011

This is when it comes in handy to have a dog. You must learn how to discreetly feed your dinner to Dogzilla.But be careful not to give him too much off of your plate, or he won’t have room to eat your homework later.I llike his booster seat.

It’s what families are like.

Ou 18mo. old sets on a wood cheesse box,or on the table to better scatter the food on the floor.Love the cheese box. Okay I love the kid. I did give him my cheese box to abuse.

I’ve got a book full of Boy Scout projects, reprinted from Ben Hunt’s work in the thirties. The project for the indian drum starts off by saying something like “Get a round cheese box…” -Which was probably pretty easy in the thirties. Now? Not so much.

Now that’s funny right thar. I keep saying I wish I could be around when my kids figure out they are wrong.

For cheese wheel boxes, you’ll need to contact a major manufacture. They do make em still (Emital Swiss is made in wheels.) but they may not be willing to give them to ya.

Might be… if the mental institution serves a cheese pizza.

Eddie, if you get a pizza at their age whilst throwing a screaming fit, my guess is the pizza will be blenderized and you’ll be wearing an adult bib to boot, followed by a medicated chaser

Why are cartoon kids so much smaller than real life ones? My daughter’s 7 and comes way over my waist, and hasn’t used a booster seat since she was 3.

And it’s not just here, look at the kids on South Park. Still riding big wheels instead of bikes in the 4th grade? And that poor Pasqual kid in Rose is Rose looks in danger of being stepped on at any moment!

(I know, I know, it’s the visual equivalent of hyperbole)

Good luck with that one Eddie!

Sarah, It’s natural for little kids to be fussy eaters…

I used to be… And still am.

LOL xxx

I love Mom’s comment in the last panel. A philosophy that works for me.

Cheese wheels….some of the larger rounds of brie come wrapped in a wheel. My brie is tiny and comes on its own tiny wood server. (about 3 inches square).At our house it was simple, what you put on your plate, you ate. If you didn’t know what it was, then a teaspoon size serving was fine. .What’s Eddie going to do when he realizes mom won’t be cooking dinner all the time when he’s grown?
