Mother Goose and Grimm by Mike Peters for January 08, 2025

I am more partial to a Mint Julep if the drink is going to have simple syrup in it.

Sounds like Mom has had enough to drink, as much as she’s sliring her speach. Hope she’s not driving.

she’s so old, her fashion went out of style years ago

That joke is even older than she is.

… add ahnudder … yesh, pleash …

My wife’s unofficial name is Margarita.

I’ll drink to that!

If Ma Goose stays too long at the bar, see’s liable to see a Tequila Sun-rise.

She’s having old-fashioned drunk by the sound of it.

Nothing like a Wisconsin made Old Fashion

“Fill, Phil…”

Context clearly implies she’s already been drinking Old-Fashioneds. That being so, she could just say “One more, please.” Phil would have to be a pretty awful bartender not to understand.

Sounds like you need to cut her off.

She’s already turning into Mooch from “Mutts.”

I love Old Fashioned Margaritas.
