The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for December 17, 2013

Nothing but class.

❇❇❇❇❇❇

They learned it on “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”>So educational.

Any place where the bus dumps a load of people off is off my list. The menu is heavy on starch and light on taste.

There must be stairs.

There’s that word ‘elegant’ again. Every time that word comes out of the mouth of one of the Pennys — or anyone from Crustwood, for that matter — I shudder and reach for the Brain Bleach. Elegant, my foot!

Last time they were here they had to get in before the “early bird special” ended. I wonder if that is the same bus co.

It must be a buffet or cafeteria bus drivers love them they are fast and easy to get in and out.

The Penny’s will clean them out I hope they didn’t bring the scale.

They think they are sooo cool. I agree, the bus is a dead giveaway for uncool.

vfw ?? I didn’t think any of them were vets

If the tour bus stops there…. you can bet that you will enter and exit thru the gift shop…. ! ! !

Porte cochere: fancy French word for ‘driveway overhang’.

Gee, they even attach those to the entrances of former supermarkets that are gutted to transform them into: Snazzy-dazzy rootie-tootie whoopie-doopie supper clubs that exude the obvious “holier-than-joe-schmoe-type franchise restaurants” scent. And the Pennys strike again!!

All we know of the Penny’s makes it clear that this place must be reasonably cheap and their version of “tastefully” decorated (although I also rather tend to excessive metallics and faux). The food’s taste makes no difference to them, as they shovel it in too fast to notice.

They should have a door especially for the Penny’s, a porte cochon.

good bit of play with words in French, mountain.
