Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for August 13, 2024

Wally, you now have adequate warning. Run. Run as fast and as far as you can.

Le MacDonalds

They come as a pair.

Order pizza for three and reschedule the pricey restaurant for two.

He might as well have picked the flowers from her planter. Those wal-mart ones seem to be wilting, already, in the last block.

Get used to it!

A mother and a sister, and neither one of them would babysit. Worst family ever.

See Ya!

Random question comes to mind: if he’s their next door neighbor, why is he having to drive to her house?

He lives next door and drives the car over to pick her up?

Joan, you CAN’T be that stupid!

Of course he minds. And so will every other diner at the French restaurant. No one wants to see or hear your poorly behaved child when they are trying to have a nice dinner. Go to McDonalds instead.

Oops!

Danger, Will Robinson!

They’re going out to a restaurant at 5 AM?

OMG! Invite him in and fix something and put the kid to bed! So inconsiderate knowing Wally has a nice evening planned.
