First of all: No honey for babies. That leads to infant botulism. Bad Michael.
The rest of this one is going to require a little explanation. You may be wondering what in the world Elly is talking about when she says April isn’t used to a bottle. After all, April is over 2 months old and Elly has been pumping since practically Day 1. How could April not be used to a bottle yet?
You may remember the Tuesday April 21, 2020 comic strip when we first learned Elly was using a pump. This is one where Elly told John not to use the milk in the measuring cup in the refrigerator because it was hers. Of course she says that after John has already put some in his coffee. It would be natural to assume that Elly meant that milk was meant for April’s bottle, but what if it was actually meant for Elly’s coffee? That could explain why April is not used to a bottle. Momma doesn’t take her coffee black.
Next you see Michael trying to give April honey to entice her to take the bottle. Why would Mike try this? The answer is that the Pattersons have a long history of eating peanut butter and honey sandwiches. Michael is simply trying a trick that would have worked for him.
As for why the car in panel 3 is hovering in the air over a world that seems to be about 15 degrees off to the left, I don’t know. The Pattersons typically drive hover cars, but the angle of the world is a mystery to me.
