Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for September 16, 2021

Is Mrs. Otterloop red with embarrassment or with anger?

Who gives cookies with raisins to anybody?

Peter Sr. and Madeline Otterloop are gentle, likeable, well-mannered people and parents. How is it possible that they somehow produced this ill-tempered, nasty, narcissistic kid. Miss-labeled bassinets?

Make mine a white chocolate chip please!

Alice just reminded cookie lady of her appointment with the opthomologist!

That R. Thompson cake looks delicious! (But Richard’s birthday is just a few days away!)

Raisins in cookies is why I have trust issues.

;-))

You hold the cookie above your head. Then it will be raisin.

It’s easy, based on appearance, to mistake oatmeal raisin cookies for chocolate chip cookies. And if you only have a cookie very occasionally and think you have picked out a chocolate chip cookie, ending up with an oatmeal raisin cookie in your mouth is really disappointing. In their own right, however, oatmeal raisin cookies are also very good, and make sort of a palate-cleansing change of pace for someone who can have cookies almost any time they want.

I’m surprised to find here how many people actually dislike raisins.

Alice makes an excellent point…

I loved my mom’s oatmeal-raisin cookies! And I liked oatmeal and raisins. Guess I’m weird…

I love Alice.

I like raisins, but not in a cookie

Actually, it’s raisins surrounded by a cookie.

I’m with Alice on this one. This rude bakery worker is off my Christmas Card list.

Alice is quite the precocious child. A common trope in comic strips.

I won’t be reading this strip anymore kids are to bratty

Rude four-year-old “babies” don’t deserve any cookies.

Alice should be made to apologize to the nice Bakery Lady!

Just add some chocolate chips and everything is alright.

Bad timing. I O/D’d on oatmeal raisin cookies just before my monthly blood test. Now my Doctor wants to see me…
