Pickles by Brian Crane for November 08, 2024

I’d rather have a stein of cool IPA with the sandwich!

Something to love: grilled cheese sandwich; something to hope for: glass of milk; what happened to something to do?

Earl seems to live a simple life.

Earl is easily pleased!

Earl changes the concept of a self-fulfilling thought, to one of a more fulfilling kind…

Once, as my wife and I were getting ready to go to work, she handed me an apple. The only time she ever packed my lunch. I have never asked her to bring me something from the kitchen. I didn’t get married because I wanted a maid servant.

…and a good wife.

This is how Nelson becomes a Charles Manson.

Surprised Roscoe isn’t on the other arm of the chair! Unless he’s in the kitchen scarfing down the left-out cheese!

Great advise, Earl! Especially as you get into the golden years!

Opal is all three.

you can wish & hope in one hand but be careful what’s in the other

Cheese AND milk.??? – - – - THAT seems odd

Earl says he was born udder a lucky star.

I have a feeling that Earl’s going to wearing his milk.

Grilled cheese without tomato soup? A travesty.

Great first panel but makes me feel melancholy. Since the pandemic I’ve been kinda lost with something to hope for. With my separation I’ve lost the something/someone to love. 1 out 3 may be good for baseball, not so much for life.

Oh, and please add a couple tablespoons oh Hearsey chocolate syrup in the milk … it’ll give me a smooth ride.

Needs tomato soup, not milk.

Where’s Nelson’s?!

How I do Grilled Cheese: Japanese Mayo outside, butter inside, Triple cheddar Airfryer @ 375 – 4 minutes flip it 3 minutes, Kettle chips on the side and a glass of Peach tea.

A well grilled cheese sandwich is indeed a worthy wish. My personal MOST comfort-food. (I’ve been wishing/having “melted witches” every day since Wednesday. I’m almost ready to face reality again,)

PS: Spouse likes hers with mayo on the inside, and often some mild lunch meat such as turkey or chicken breast. She likes a any of a variety of cheeses in hers, and not very dark on the outside. I like mine with JUST cheese (sharp cheddar is best) and perhaps a bit of sriracha or harissa if the cheese needs a bit more oomph. Fried medium brown (about 30 seconds per side longer than for Spouse) with plenty of butter.

PPS: If you enjoy sriracha and haven’t tried harissa, I recommend it highly. Comes in green and red, both excellent.

Eat the sandwich and drink the milk.

…and the female servant…

Semiperfect wife.

Hey, I just heard that line on that prison show Wentworth …odd!
