Alice: And look whats in the goodie bag- a little package of soy sauce, some frilly toothpicks and a teenie-weenie bottle of shampoo. Mom: What are those things all over you? Alice: Dill and I got into a sticker fight and I won! That part was great.

Okay, frilly toothpicks; okay, shampoo. But what’s with the little package of soy sauce?!As for the sticker fight—if Alice was the winner, I’d not want to see what Dill looks like now!

Ugh- CARROT CAKE?? I HATED it when kids got that or Coconut for their cakes. I know it’s THEIR birthday, but c’mon…

Sisyphos,
When you order or pickup Chinese food, you get about 14,000 soy sauce packets with your order. Dill’s mother didn’t want to waste them.

Now that I know what was in them, I don’t blame the other kids for leaving when they got their goody bags. Once they saw the contents, they must have figured things could only go downhill from then on.

Wow! Richard was posting here yesterday! I pray that your therapy is going well and you’re able to come back to us someday soon. These early strips are a riot. The Oregonian didn’t pick CDS until ‘08 or ’09? so I didn’t get to see the early stuff. When I saw other artists mentioning you in their strips I took notice and I’m glad I did. Brilliant.

What kind of whack-job goody bag is that?

At least Dill HAS a mom now that we know of. Too bad she did not supervise the games. I would love to give away the samples that I keep getting with things (Tide put a sample of a stinky Pod on my big bottle of Free and Gentle). If I liked smelly detergent I’d be buying THAT,
