"Pickles" -- "You still taste good to me"

Thursday May 1, 2008
One of our favorite cartoon strips is "Pickles" by Brian Crane. "Pickles" depicts three generations of an American family with a focus on grandpa (Earl) and grandma (Opal). Brian said in an online forum that the inspiration for the characters of Earl and Opal is from his wife's parents, "who have that sort of surface bickering but have that deep, abiding love underneath."

The last few days Brian has been exploring the impact of losing one's taste buds. Today's cartoon where she gives him a smooch on the head is priceless!
