Monty by Jim Meddick for February 06, 2022

Depending on where you’re from, that’s either pee-KAN or pee-KON. (Also, that’s either EEther or IYther.)

Costco’s pies are surprisingly good.

It appears to be Pecan’t pie.

Everything Costco is remarkably good.

Just take the “coffee to go” and don’t ya forget to go right on time BEFORE it arrives…

A gastronomic episode for the cast iron stomach. My goodness! My choice would be beer and pretzels. Make that beer, soft pretzels with mustard and more beer.

I love the way this strip is drawn… the expressions and antics are spot on!

I’d still eat it………………..but then, again, I have a $5 tongue.

Pecan pie is better with chopped pecans.

Wait until he sees the cook trying to scrape the grilled cheese off of the griddle…

That is some powerful pecan glue.

Where did Monty find a Diner?

Damn. Now I’m having a flash-back. Metal trim on the counter, swivel top stools, salt & pepper shakers, catsup in a squeeze bottle. I don’t see an ashtray, oh yeah, it’s 2022.

Out of shot, an urn of coffee, a guy named Frank flippin’ eggs. I understand, now, why the old ones hate change. You lose the things you loved. The lunch counter at Kresge. The smell of Fanny Farmer store, when someone opens the door. Window shopping on Main street.Did I ever imagine, I’d miss the A&P?

Look like apples pie.

A properly prepared pecan pie is full of sticky goodness.

“When you’re done with his sandwich, would you bring the blow torch???” :)

There are some toffee cashews at a local market that looked good until I shook one of the boxes and they all stayed in one solid piece.

Naw..it’s too late, annealed to the cover.

Even a fresh pecan pie is a pretty sticky deal!

Dad loved it, Mom was okay with it. I never have liked it….

its gooey.
