That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for October 09, 2018

The prodigal son’s return was celebrated with a fattened calf.

The prodigal’s daughter’s with tofu and gluten free pasta.

“I’m going out in this dress, or I’m not going out at all!”

“Nice evening at home then…”

Daughter telling her parents that she is going to Hollywoodland and is going to make it big in the motion picture industry.

“She’s leaving home, bye bye.”

Trust me Grannie…..You don’t want to go in there. Something must have died…give it a while!

No one leaves this room until I find out who licked the butter knife!

Not having a TV, Sarah takes on the character Maria in order to entertain her parents with various songs from West Side Story.

I am the ghost of Kiss-a-Ginger-Day present.

OMG, this guy is hysterical. Don’t even try to re-caption what he came up with. Steve – awesome work. I laugh out loud every day.

Helen telling her parents that they really should use less wattage bulbs.

Don’t plan on using the shower for a few days. I’m wearing the curtain as a ball gown tonight. And I don’t want any crap from you, Gramps!

Michael could have picked a better time to tell his grandparents that he was now “Michelle” .

all have info about this (somewhat unique, in that he was married to sisters; the second marriage had to take place outside of England due to legal restrictions at the time – not polygamy) artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. So far, 8 works by him have been used here (9 times, with 1 repeat using a different caption).

Yes I’m back and I bought the mansion on the hill. Those ill-gotten gains turned out to be pretty great!

You were only 4’10" when you left – are you wearing high heels?

me maw casts a big shadow but papa has none , Celine is a bit worried about her neck.

“What’s become of your feet, Dear?”

“Welcome home, Missy. I’d stand up and give you a hug, but I’m pretty sure I soiled my britches when you walked through the door.”
