After all that parody (or was it just satire?), it’s nice to get back to Cherry’s more practical, logical stories that … uh, wait. What’s going on here? Didn’t we cover this, already? Cherry is virtually always outside when we see her. And as for a new foot, well, we can’t see it, because Violet’s dialog balloon is in the way (okay, that comment was just cheap sarcasm. By the way, if this strip originated in France, Rivera would probably have written that Cherry and Violet are starting off on a whole new meter. Sometimes it’s hard to constrain my wit).

Still, it’s heartwarming to see Violet once again getting her comeuppance for her hypocrisy and snobbishness; So what’s her game? All of her talk and actions about wanting to spend more time outside in nature seem disingenuous. Let’s hope we find out before the week is over.
