I did that as a child. As a teen, I also would tell each parent the other was ready to leave gatherings. I confessed this to my mother, as an adult, and she told me they knew and would leave if they wanted to also. Letting me think I was so clever. LOL! (▀̿Ĺ̯▀̿ ̿)
One day, years ago, my husband made a beef stew, but it came out a very unsightly and unappetizing shade of green. His father, he & I were all hesitant to try it, but it turned out to be the best stew any of us ever had. All that said…I’d go for pork chops.

They used this same gag on the Cosby Show in the 80s. Claire invites Cockroach to stay for dinner and he calls home to see what his mom is cooking.

My mom was health-food crazy; when dad cooked we feasted.

I like both. Charlie Brown isn’t very polite.

Phones had no privacy a lot of places back then. Sometimes even more now!

I’d have gone home for stew, never been a fan of pork chops – love pork loin roast

I just love Charlie Brown’s profile in the first frame. Perfectly round with the little nose lol!
