There are some questions here: Why move to California from Philly, considering the wildfires and the rampant homelessness going on as well as strict COVID restrictions? Also, why does Eve need a three bedroom apartment with one room for the dog if she's living alone allegedly? Does she have some socially defective person, like Madi living with her? Perhaps they all can make banana bread together. The only drawback is that they won't have Madi's secret ingredient.

Speaking of banana bread, I made some this weekend, even without Madi's secret ingredient. It came out quite good, albeit a little too moist. Also, my kitchen looked nothing like Toby's after I finished. But then, I don't drink vodka while baking.

Today's Boldface Haiku is titled

"In Space No One Can Hear You Bark".

Rare big dog.
Own room three-bedroom...
Extensive.
Yes, space.
Both!

Sheesh, how long are these two going to tiptoe around the issue: “THREE-BEDROOM apartment,” “You’ll BOTH like it!”? June should have inserted thought balloons for Saul (“Who’s the third bedroom for?”) and Eve (“Should I tell him about the urn with Adam’s ashes and all his bowling trophies?”).

@Scottie--LOL. It's like a Camelot for Boring Senior Citizens.

This story line may end quickly once Mary finds out that Max has moved in and is over the 25 pound limit stated clearly in fine print on page 37 of the lease.

Nance, Laugh-out-loud BFH title!

She mentions a three-bedroom apartment and constantly uses “we”. I’m still holding to the idea of a miscreant adult offspring. Or maybe her 103 year old curmudgeon of a stepmother. Anything to make this new plot interesting.

Hilarious, everyone. With the means to pay rent on a three-bedroom apartment in a swanky place like Charterstone, it looks like Estelle may have some competition for Most Well-Heeled Matron. Hope Arthu/er is paying attention.

Just in case anyone missed Wanders' highlighted word "varied" in his comment, you should click on it for a trip down memory lane. Too funny. And.... is that Ian walking the big fluffy dog?

I live alone in a two-bedroom condo. The second bedroom (the larger one) is my art studio. I wish I had a third, for my library. That wouldn't keep me from having overflowing bookshelves in every room in the place, but it would ease the pressure a little. For a few years, anyway.

@Regina, you must have forgotten that Charterstone people are out of the news loop. Way out.
I think they all still get together in the rec room once a week and watch Falcon Crest.

@HelenClark - No, it looks more like Professor Pappagoras from apartment 3G!

@HelenClark, thanks for the tip. Loved Ian's Farah Fawcett winged hairdo and Mary channeling her inner Jessica Fletcher. But Jessica Fletcher was tougher, she never wore a helmet.

Nance said...

@fauxprof--Thank you!

@HelenClark--Thanks for tuning us in to Wanders' retrospective. I miss Joe G. sometimes. And I think things were a bit snarkier in the strip with the former MW writer.
