Halloween Over Time

Halloween is not my favorite. Bah, humbug.

Hurricane Landings

Well wishes to those affected by yesterday's storm and big thanks to everyone working tirelessly around the clock to put the city back together again.

From my window, I could see birds clinging to the tops of trees, but first they had to land...

Hurricane Pick-up Lines

A second cartoon for the day, just for laughs. Pick-up line brilliantly conceived by my friend Ali Hawkins :)

When I started cartooning a year ago, I posted this one about how New Yorkers prepare for a hurricane.

Storm's a-brewin'. Stay safe, fellow East Coasters.

Mommy Aerialist

This one is for my friends Stacey and Pascal in South Africa -- who are due any minute now! Judging from the parents, I imagine the baby will have a few tricks up its sleeves :)

At Least It's Friday

As comedian Mike Birbiglia would say, my dreams are so much better than my life right now.

BUT as I would say --

Speaking Voice Over Time

I think I may be getting more obnoxious with age, but at least I'm self-aware ;)

Mornings Are Merry

I usually love my mornings, but some days - not so much ;)

Hard to Please Men

Today's cartoon is inspired by a classic Seinfeld episode where George gets set up on a blind date ;)

Duck Duck Goose

A quick idea sketch is all I could manage today. Busy week ahead!

A Status Message a Day #116

CRAZY happy it's Friday. Yay.

Unnecessary Dating Advice

This is my survival instinct kicking in ;)

Single Girl Routine

Ah, the single life: sometimes less is more ;)

Single Girl Mail

I love getting mail, I do :)

Single Girl, Stupid Gag

Girls can be mean, but boys are no picnic either...

With apologies and love to Charles M. Schulz, creator of "Peanuts"

Old Lady Walking

My friends know that I'm an old lady inside, so with every birthday, I'm just getting closer to my true self ;)

A Status Message a Day #115

I missed a day of cartooning, but the good news is jury duty turned into one of the best New York days ever.

Single Girl, Chicken Soup

I always feel funny making dinner, but I must say, I've got single-servings down pat.

Single Girl, Happy Life

Eh, there are worse things in life ;)

Happy Monday!

Tumbleweed Fridays

I got nothin' today. Have a good weekend, everyone.

The Reaction on Sesame Street

We feel ya, Big Bird. #Debates2012

Social Media Flirt

This was a throw-away joke. Brought it back for today's cartoon. Some ideas are totally superfluous and I'm fine with that.

The Gifting Rituals of Autumn

Argh! I neglected to replace my broken scanner and it is biting me in the butt this week.

I'll have to properly scan and repost this cartoon later, but here's a peek. It's the best I could manage today, from a photograph of the line work.

A bit late for Mid-Autumn Festival, but moon cakes last forever.

Phases of Moon Cake

Yesterday was Mid-Autumn Festival, a Chinese lunar harvest holiday, when families gather and feast and celebrate the season. Traditionally, moon cakes (a rich pastry made of lotus or red bean paste, often containing a salted duck yolk) are gifted and eaten with tea during this occasion. If you celebrate, hope you had a very happy 中秋節.

This is the first panel of a longer cartoon I'm working on about this tradition. Hope to post today or tomorrow.
