Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for December 15, 2019

yet, Luann, you were too lazy to ask your parents, brother, or sister-in-law to help get out the ladder in order to find the Christmas cookie cutters in garage

Shoulda bought some new Christmas cutters if you don’t want to go to the trouble of getting the ones you already have.

With your own money, of course.

We always keep ours right in the kitchen—year round.

Brad is wearing a uniform. Is this the first time he has worn his uniform this year?

Somethin’ look cheesy. Your sister’s smile.

Pretty sure cat shaped cookies taste the same as tree shaped cookies

In the first panel, are those white lips? Are they teeth? Neither of which Luann usually has.

I thought maybe she started working on them at Halloween.

Gee, who do we know that could handle a ladder?

Who is that stranger? Oh! Wait, that’s Luann !

Nancy is going to be really pi$$ed when she sees that Luann did not put a heat insulating pad on the counter before laying that 375 degree cookie sheet on it and damaged the counter top.

Unless you’re in some kind of cookie contest, the most important thing is the taste, not the shape…

So the cookies will be super original as well as super delicious. And this reminds me that it’s finally time to use the cake mold shaped like a snowman.

Wait! The 12.19.19 will there be the announcement of an official Luann T-shirt? AWESOME!!!

I go to the market and get a tub of store made chocolate chip cookies. Done!

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and it seems to taste just fine.

The scene that did not make into the Christmas Hallmark movie

a cat cookie fits Icelandic Christmas fine. Well our Yule anyway.

Should have just done all cats. No one would complain about that!

Oh Luann.

I can’t say anything. I made gingerbread cookie circles yesterday. I didn’t want to dig out the cutters (they were just under the counter) and roll out the dough. (they tasted great!)

What?!? You mean you didn’t haul them out immediately after Halloween, skipping Thanksgiving altogether – like most retail stores seem to do? Why, that’s un-American!

…spared no expense. Where have I heard that before?

What a Lovely scene. Luann and the original “Cookie Monster,” Brad. These two have come a long, long, way. 25 years ago they’d be insulting each other and fighting right about now. How they’ve grown. And both have grown up with little or no “back sliding.” No reverting back to their old ways, unlike SOME characters in the Strip.

And as much as I love the Tiffany, Gunther, and Bets stories, perhaps it is time for them to take a break for a couple of months, and allow Brad, and especially Luann to return to their starring roles.

Now for some Oreos and Eggnog………,

Just change the icing from orange and black to red and green, it’s all good.

C is for cat cookie, and that’s good enough for me.

Because they’re from the Hallow-Thanks-Chris-New Year’s holiday.

Call th efire department. They have ladders.

What other kitchen cooking items are in the garage?

Hilarity ensues, Sunday Luann foible. Nice to see Brad, drawn well in his uniform. Wanna see Toni.

that’s mrs santa’s cat

Sounds about right for Luann.

We need one generic holiday that happens every two months….

The jack o’lantern cookie could of had icing to make it look like Jack from T’was the Nightmare Before Christmas !! :)

@Templo S.U.D.: A lazy person does not bake cookies from scratch for the family. And perhaps she did not ask for help with a ladder in the garage because she might have wanted to surprise the family with cookies?

A jar mouth wouldn’t do?

Brad’s action tells all: They’re cookies! Eat ’em!

oh you poor thing; you can can change tire on a truck in the rain, camp in a semi remote area but you can’t climb a ladder to reach something?

Irrelevant to taste…

She ran out of “Just Right” while stirring the cookie dough.

tomorrow: Tara apologizes.

Luann’s laziness on parade sorta deflates the Good Tidings that had been generated up to panel 3….

Time to give Tiffany a break and visit Bets and Gunther. Tiff has been brutalized all year long, but Greg won’t touch his new royal couple. I like Tiff but am always disappointed with the way Greg handles her. Maybe 2020 will bring her some happiness.

Round cookies don’t need a cookie cutter. And the best cookies aren’t rolled out so you can’t cut them into shapes. Chocolate chip, peanut butter (topped with a chocolate kiss), oatmeal (no raisins please), macaroons, … you name it, balls of dough are put on the sheet and placed in the oven!

Too bad! So sad! :o(

Luann was just a ladder away from being on Santa’s “Good List.”

Just….WOW.
