The Dinette Set by Julie Larson for July 01, 2013

The only thing smaller is your brain Burl/

Hi Y’All

As a matter of fact, they told me the least commenting I do, the better off I’ll be.

G’mornin; Mizz Dean,

Yes Ma’am, nice to see you….

Ii’s kind of a gamble for you to stop by, isn’t it…. but then, you always DID like a gamble.

And Good mornin’ Marg…aren’t we just dying to see what Miss Dean is cooking up?

Well, that IS a pretty small bunch of flowers. But I’m surprised that Burl can tell since his perception of size is so warped. Looks like Jill and Ken owe the Pennys something; maybe Ken works for Burl.Hi, Paula! Figger out a way to fit pork belly confit into a diabetic/cardio diet.

SimpsonFan… true! Ain’t nobody densa than Burl!

Burl will not only look a gift horse in the mouth… he’ll grind it into horse meat.

When JILL was in the hospital, he told Joy not to send a card cos she’d probably be out before it arrived….’

When she got home (three weeks later) he said she didn’t need one any more.

Too bad…. after Joy got that lovely assortment of 12 get well cards from the Dollar Tree.

Mornin to the rest of you too!

Good Morning SusanSunshine, it’s really nice to see you this morning :) Another Monday.. whee! A whole new week to be productive!

“Mornin to the rest of you too!”

Check this out.

Here it is, if you can bear it.

Well I guess Joy did get something from sharing the ice cream with her sick sister even though she did get her own spoon. At least Joy did get flowers I would have just given her the used vase..good morning all

Not fair…..Joy gets a puny vase of flowers for her “illness” while Sue got the Ham Loaf for getting rear-ended. ,Burl sees inequity everywhere….as long as it affects him.

Hello Miz Paula…welcome to Crustwood. I’ll put in a good word with Joy Penny (she’s the master chef here) and maybe she’ll give you a few pointers with cooking. .Oh……her husband; Burl Penny….he’s available to lecture you on the Social Graces here. He’ll make sure you fit right in.

Widdle Burl sounds a widdle jealous to me.

Good morning, Paula. Nice to see you’re still accepted somewhere (now that even QVC followed the herd of “correctness”). Too bad you didn’t have a better PR team.

A small bouquet is often nice. When I awoke this morning I was thinking of fresh lilacs and lily of the valley. My family all know that gardenias are my favorites, tho’.

I don’t think we’ll find the heart as neither of them has any.

JOY… Just take your placebo and watch some Paula Deen reruns…. ! ! !

Morn’n Miz Paula, I tried you-alls recipe for deep fried bacon this morning, mighty tasty. I’ll be in the ER all morning if someone asks. At least Joy GOT flowers, during my bout with pneumonia last month, I got nuttin. (why am I talking with a Southern accent?)

I’m baaaack y’all.

Have I been whippin up some vittles for yawl.

Piping hot chittlin broth and paneed possum breasts…………bon appetite.

I think everyone may be missing the joke of Burt’s shirt. I think it was intended as a gag shirt because it’s spelled tutor, not tuter. Reminds me of a time when I was in the elevator with a coworker and complimented him on his shirt, I asked him if the writing was Chinese or Japanese and what it said and he told me he had no idea. While we were talking a customer got on the elevator and she turned to look at the shirt and burst out laughing. She explained that the writing was in Japanese and since she was from Japan she could read it, it said, “I am a stupid American who has no idea what this shirt says.” My coworker never wore the shirt again.

Actually, now that you pointed it out, I see it’s a pair of bowed lips.
