Mine!
The other day, I brought the munchkins to a park. Now, all 3 of the them are very possessive with their toys and food. Naturally, when I made the mistake of bringing only one bag of Ritz sandwich crackers (my favourite!) to share amongst the 3 of them, some bickering ensued. My ears could only…
Tick Tock
Soooooooo yes, the title is a bit misleading… lol I guess on purpose! I love the element of surprise in a cartoon, don’t you? 🙂 Tick sightings have increased in our area where it was previously presumed tick-free! And since I’m uber paranoid of Lyme Disease, I’m always warning my kids about ticks. Add in…
Poke’s on You
This week, I had a lot of new ideas for comics to draw but I chose the simplest one. Some other punchlines that have taken a back seat include this year’s particularly bad mosquito population, overtired mom, what’s for dinner and a duck cartoon. LOL Today’s cartoon was inspired by a true event, though not…
The B-Word
I must confess. There is a word that irks me to my core. It is the B-word… When I hear someone say “I’m boooored” or “This is booooring”, it sets off a mix of emotions within. Annoyance, exasperation, and a general sense of “so what?!” To me, being bored isn’t a bad thing! In fact,…
Pigsty
As I sit here at my tablet, listening to the thunderous roar of the rainstorm pelting down outside, I realize that perhaps with the changing of the seasons, I have grown a bit unmotivated to draw my beloved cartoons. My grade 12 world lit teacher called this “internalization of landscape” or was it “externalization of…
Mewey on Raising Daughters
My dad was always outnumbered growing up. Under one roof he had to share his castle with Mom, 4 daughters and 2 female dogs… 🙂 In retrospect, I’m grateful to him because he always taught us to be independent and self-sufficient women. I always joke that since he had no sons, he compensated by raising…
Mewey on Having Sons
So back in June, I along with my 3 sisters planned a 40th anniversary celebration for our folks. My mom’s name is May, and my dad’s name is Dewey, hence the name Mewey 🙂 I drew up a few cartoons summarizing life with them which I’ll slowly leak out over the next few days. I…
It’s Snot
So we all came back from San Diego a little bit plugged up and under the weather. In particular, my daughter had this persistent train of snot that would just peer out from time to time only to be slurped back inside. Only after a sneeze would its gargantuan size be fully revealed. Anyway, I…
Zombie Parent
So the Walking Dead is back on again so I decided to draw another zombie cartoon, mixed with parenting.
