Re: 2021/04/30 - Ambrosia
I know this is over two years old (I can't believe the time went by so fast), But I had never heard of brown butter cookies before this strip, and it would frequently come to mind since that time.

Marion, Lois, and all of the other transformed characters in this arc have become such a part of the comic as a whole, that I would miss them if they returned to their human form. Even Steward. Even Thomas. Maybe Thomas.
