The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for February 26, 2012

More crust than a loaf of bread!!

Good Morning Crustwoodians

Joy’s mouth is watering………………they are so damned greedy.

Love Joy’s ‘Bovine Wear’.

I see that Mikie hasn’t marinated you yet, Leaky.

the cheese isn’t the only thing thats grating.

Hey Mikie2, old buddy, old pal………….we told Joy, Burl, et al about the delicious seafood dishes you prepare!! Let me be the first to let you know

Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner??

I love to see perfection. What? JL, you out-did yourself today! You even got Jerry to blink. Everything else was perfect, from “Bovine Wear” to the “Stuffed Olive” to that wondrous pig-like look on Joy’s face. You captured it. Bravo!On to serious matters, though. Susan or Dazz, do either of you have a sausage maker? I’m having Leaky for dinner—oops, I mean I’m having Leaky OVER for dinner—and I want to have artisanal sausage.Are the Pennys coming over as well? Oh goody, I was just re-reading in the Foxfire books how to render lard. Perfect.

I’m just surprised that they’d go to a restaurant with enough class to even have waitstaff to freshly grind parm or pepper for you!

Good Morning Crustwoodites!

These people get more disgusting every day!

Joy’s mouth is more than watering…. it’s drooling like a bloodhound’s — and believe me, they are some serious droolers.

I am so glad I’m not sitting across the table from her — or any of them.

Maybe the bovine shirt should be labelled “Porcine Shirt”, for its color and decoration.

 ……Its wearer could go either way.

In fact her picture could illustrate either word in the dictionary.

For a moment I thought it said “Divine Wear”…. I knew it wouldn’t, but it made me realise….

I’d never noticed how much Joy looks like Divine!

Dunno how many of you are familiar with the over-the-top 300-pound blonde star of John Waters films like Pink Flamingos and (the original) Hairspray…. born Glenn, but known by her drag persona.

She wore a wilder hairdo and a LOT more makeup…. but Joy, with her coarse manners and drooling lips, would do for a stand-in.

Great clip, X-Tech! Thanks.

And Marg — sure hope you’re OK now.

Mikie! Do you think I would aid and abet your monstrous plan?

Not only is Leaky a fellow Crustwoodian…. and a friend…. why, he’s… hmm….OK, he’s….

well… he’s probably tough as old shoe leather anyway.

But I’ll be happy to stop by for seafood some night when the Pennys won’t be there…. and I can afford a bodyguard in case Susan sausage was intened to be on the menu.

And Purple — I’m sure they had a good coupon.

I just discovered that there’s a Find-It after all…..

It’s a lot harder to read the words than to find the actual object.

In case you can’t see it….. in the upper right corner, in black on dark purple, it says “Find-it: A Pig.”

4 stuffed olives sitting at the table. The last thing they need is more stuffing.

Thats the same reason why when I go out to eat, I use as much salt as I possibly can.

Good Sunday morning all! @Marg and Susan, I also love Joy’s T. and had already seen the addition before reading about the find it. black on dark purple (I had to stand up and view the large version from different angles to make it out; eyes are still sleepy). I remember Divine and the first Hairspray (even watched another Waters film that was worse).

No one mentioned that the boys are wearing ties (tucked in shirt to keep them out of food, I guess) and either Verl has relented and gone back to Jer, or since it is Sunday, Julie drew this earlier. And leaky, that’s one piece of equipment I did not buy, partly because casings are hard to store (I hear) even though the only place I found for organic pepperoni is in CA (Fortuna’s). I seasoned mushroom slices like pepperoni and made it even healthier that way, even if I add a little of my Sprouts’ hot Italian which I buy sans casing.

Have a little salad with that cheese

The joke’s on her. It’s imitation soy parmesan-like cheese product. (Not that she’ll know the difference. It’s probably what she has at home.)

drool roolsshe has a thing for parmesan — i think she hid the parm not so long ago before dinner guests arrived.

I love the Olive Garden, the Stuffed Olive, not so much!

Mikie, our museum has a sausage stuffer and a chitlin press. But they also have a no loan policy….. Sorry.

I spy a piggie in pink.

Leaky — Come to think of it…. I’ve never liked feeling like a side dish, either.

Can’t believe that Priceless has about twice the comments today as we have here. We are all too upset over the unexplaned ban on a fellow PRO member whose comments were nothing but useful and pleasant.

@Leaky, I see that the sausage attachment is just under $15 at Kitchenaid site, but I would only buy if I could get a recipe for nitrate free pepperoni (don’t mind hanging them to dry in the kitchen as I used to do with fresh-bought sausage from a German butcher back in the 60s)

I had to use tiny URL for a photo http://tinyurl.com/7osq6sb

Thanks, Xtech (I thought everyone here had seen it) ;-D G’night all!

Dazz, yes, I forgot to answer the other day, when you asked why I said I hadn’t seen it posted.

It was cos when you mentioned it here the 1st time, you didn’t give his name.I didn’t get a chance to visit That’s Priceless, so I went there the next day to find out.You can’t get in trouble for telling us who you’re talking about!

Jeez, these people. I read every strip but I think some of the satisfaction comes from knowing I can do everything possible and probably succeed in never having to have anything to do with anyone remotely like them.
