Garfield by Jim Davis for November 24, 2016

is selfish Garfield even going to share some of that whisker-curling trash with Arlene?

And that’s their idea of Thanksgiving dinner?

The feline idea of the perfect date!

he knows what she likes.

What? No turkey??? Oh well. Happy Thanksgiving all!

If there’s a joke, I don’t get it, but it’s nice to see them just having a nice conversation.

I’ll find later if Heathcliff and Sonja are going to do the same thing.

Garfield can be romantic after all.

And this is BEFORE Thanksgiving left-overs!!!

Aye sure and there’s something that smell’s fishy about this,don’t you think Arlene?

Iá thanksgiving sona!Happy Thanksgiving Day!

Garfield and Arlene have been together practically since the start of the strip, and it seems that Jon’s years of loneliness are over. Now Odie needs to meet someone.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I’m making organic Vegetarian pasta today.

♦ Uncle Bills famous (infamous?) pasta sauce:

♫

2 med/lg tomatoes

1 med/lg red onion

1 sweet red bell pepper

1 oz apple cider vinegar

some no-salt Italian seasoning and some ground pepper

(optional) mushrooms, garlic

(optional) 4 or 5 oz Asiago cheese (no other cheese will do)

♫

Start water boiling for pasta but dont add salt. Add pasta when boiling. Meanwhile, slice the onion in half at its “equator” and slice off the ends, slice the pepper in half from “pole to pole” after removing stem and seedy core. Place them on a plate and cook in microwave oven for 10 to 11 min (longer if you have an older weaker mw oven). Dice the tomatoes and place in blender with the cooked onion and pepper, asiago cheese (and optional mushrooms and/or garlic if you want). Add 1 oz apple cider vinegar and Italian seasoning. Blend to desired consistency. You may have to add liquid or water depending on your blender and/or the tomatoes used. If you use canned mushrooms you can use the liquid from that too. Makes enough sauce for 16 oz (dry uncooked weight) of pasta. I recommend pasta that can be eaten with a table spoon such as fiore, mini farfalle, radiatore, rotini, small or med shells or elbow macaroni. Enjoy.

♫

You may want to cook the onion and pepper differently than in the microwave oven. That’s up to you but they must be cooked. Same with the mushrooms and garlic.

First time I’ve seen Garfield actually be polite to her.

where’s the thanksgiving comic? there’s something wrong, with just a basic strip.

My husband likes sardines. I finally got him to throw the can in the trash can in the garage instead of the one in the kitchen. But, open that one in the garage and it will curl your whiskers!

So very grateful that my two Siamese cats are indoor cats!!

I think Jim Davis is getting ready to retire, not yet, but soon.

That’s weird. In the silhouette/fence strips, I always thought they were facing away from us. Huh.

Oh, wait, they are facing away. That’s some swivel on their heads.
