What’s worse than finding a worm in an apple?

This strip is great :-D thumps up!

And it reminds me of my late unkle and godfather. Once he told us about his latest hike up the hill to the castle. When he got down again, it was already dark and he got hungry. It was harvest time so he filled his bag with apples from the trees he came by. Ate half of the bag on his way home. Back in his kitchen he saw that all of those apples were full of worms. Even he started to gag and he wasn’t a picky eater at all.

Saved by Broomie showing compassion!

The last panel is now the time some monster comes along and eats or squish’s the apple. Yip yip yip yip yip

you RARELY see her showing so much empathy.

Awww!

You’re right, Broomie. There is too much homelessness.

Two worms in an apple strips on the same day???

A half a worm

Whew!

That’s not the worms home that’s the worms meal

How can Nerwin be so small with such a big heart.

That looks like the worm in the old Richard Scarry books

Only Irwin could have such humane concerns for a worm in a wormy apple….

Just last week, I was eating a salad that a friend gave me (she was cleaning her refrigerator before going out of town). I’d eaten about 1/2 when I saw a spider in it!
