Grandma Heckel is based on a sweet hearted landlady from the first apartment that I can remember. Mrs. Krinke knew how to persuade young children to do something using clever psychology, and I may put one of her ‘tricks’ in the strip!
I’ve had the “they’re too pretty to eat” line used on me! One of my former coworkers loved Halloween, so one year, I made some sugar cookies that I cut out with Halloween cookie cutters, and decorated them. It didn’t dawn on me until later that he probably couldn’t eat them for dietary reasons. I’m hoping he shared them with his elderly mother who lived with him. ☺️

Well, we here in the US have another month to wait. And it’s one of my favorite holidays besides Christmas!

This does not mean that I won’t play Grandma Heckel for comedy. I have something planned!

We took a good pie to my cousin’s funeral. The church ladies saved it for after the guests left and we had the family gathering.
