Freak! Are those the same muffins that were in the same Zip-Lock bag that the Milk-Bones and catnip treats were in? Bon Appetite.

Wow, Wanders. I hadn't even noticed that the dog treats were in the same bag as the muffins! I did notice today, however, that Estelle is at least thinking of throwing her muffin, rather than eating it. I wonder who her target would be.
Estelle puts up with a lot from both Wilbur and Mary, but we all have our breaking points.
Wanders, after reading your secret message, perhaps Mary's quest to reunite Estelle and Wilbur is based on Wilbur being a stray. He certainly does not seem to have much of a direction in his life. I think Pierre and Libby get along so well since they have a common enemy in Wilbur. That could be why Estelle is happy to have both of them. With any luck when she finds out Mary's true intent she will throw her out.
Animal rescue shelters are totally cool with you giving away the animals you adopt from them to unvetted strangers. Now that I say that, I realize that the Santa Royale Society for the Provision of Cuddly Animals probably does operate that way.
Somehow I always miss seeing the panel where the guest arrives at the apartment of one of the Charterstone residents.
"No, no. Don't sit all the way over there by yourself in that comfortable occasional chair. Come here and cram yourself in next to me on this tiny little love seat."
Is Estelle a cyborg? That’s the only explanation for her right arm in panel 1.
HelenClark, the tiny little love seat coordinates with the tiny little plates. BTW, I presume Estelle and Mary are going to choke down those dry muffins with no beverage to help since there are no tiny little mugs or teacups in sight.
Perhaps Wilbur's fish looked so stricken because of his distorted appearance outside their tank along with his monologue about the great fish care advice he got at the pet store. June appears to be channeling Dr. Seuss with the fish illustrations...
I don't know if I've posted here before, but I do follow occassionally. This is actually the most interesting Mary Worth storyline to me since Aldo crashed and burned. I'm enjoying seeing the ways these two can screw up their lives.
If Estelle gets back together with Wilbur, doesn't it break the ironclad verbal karaoke contract she executed when she sang "We are never, ever getting back together"? I'm not a lawyer, but I'm 90% sure this is how it works.
Didn't Wilbur already tell Mary about giving Pierre to Estelle? Anyway, if it's not already on the Charterstone Juke Box, I think "Happy Together" by the Turtles would be a good addition.
Honestly, Wilbur isn't even caring for the fish properly. You aren't supposed to put two large fish in a tank right after you set it up. You need to establish a nitrogen cycle in the tank first.
Fish also need a good filter, water conditioners, and an air stone. Tropical species need a heater. Fish are honestly kind of expensive to get set up properly.
TUESDAY P. 1: Mary, there’s nothing nice about Wilbur adopting an animal for the wrong reasons and then foisting it off on another person. P. 2: “Underneath his fluster”? Earth to KM: Did you mean “bluster”? Wilbur’s not a lovable goofball who means well but keeps stepping in it, he’s a thoughtless, narcissistic jerk. I think Mary has a grudge against Estelle for some reason and is determined to make her miserable by coercing her to once again take Wilbur back. Hmpf!
To reinforce KitKat's point about Wilbur: Just because he exhibited a rare moment of understanding his limitations doesn't make him a "nice guy". Follow your instincts, Estelle! Go for the vet! Or are we to assume the budding romance between Estelle and Dr. Ed is off since he saw her cut loose on her ex at karaoke? Steve mentioned a trip to buy tires. That appears to be one of the only Mary meddled experiences that had a profound personality change on someone (Saul). I'm sure Wilbur could use a new set of tires about now...
TUESDAY It appears that most of us are flustered at KM’s incorrect use of the word ‘fluster’. Possibly she meant to write ‘flubber’. I’m guessing that KM can probably draw better than she can write (who couldn’t?). Maybe it’s time for June and KM to switch jobs.

Thrifty Mary previously used that bag to freeze turkey parts for soup.

Thrifty Mary, indeed! What else does she "re-use"?

Mary's plan to reunite Wilbur and Estelle involves a trip to buy tires.
I wonder how many muffins can be found in the Charterstone dumpster on a given day.

I do wish Santa would bring Ms. Moy a thesaurus. And an elf to teach her how to use it.

Tim, that is a good question. The answer would not surprise any of us.
I think we are finally starting to see what Mary is really about. She is no Mother Theresa.
