I’m Back!

Visual Description:  A mom cutting corners during tough times.

MYKOS  =  SMOKY,  BEDRY  =  DERBY,  TULFAY  =  FAULTY,  EBONGY  =  BYGONE —   Giving us:  SMDEATNE

Clue/Question:  Occasionally, a family does this to make ends meet.

Answer:  ENDS MEAT

(Good pun.  Great all around scrambling.  Nice cartoon.  Nowadays, some families are fortunate to even have grilled cheese sandwiches!  Good news on the ankle front!  It looks like the cast is bringing things in line.  No more talk of surgery!  See him again in 4 weeks, where he’ll remove this cast.  Then, I either go back to the “boot”, or he’ll put me in a walking cast.  So relieved!  Be good, do good, friends.)   — YUR

“Put all your eggs in one basket – and watch that basket.”   — Mark Twain

(I think we gotta give “Mark Twain” a break.  Maybe mix in his given name, Samuel Clemens, or something.  Because whenever I see the author , first name – 4 letters, last name – 5 letters it’s pretty much a giveaway!  I try NOT to look at the author, but sometimes I slip.  He’s very likely the most quotable American of all time, so let’s mix it up guys!)   — YUR
