We have a winner! Diana left a caption on snowflake spotted Oscar, and her name rose to the top of my drawing hat. Diana has a blog of her own where she explains some of America’s interesting expressions like it’s “a piece of cake” to those who may not have grown up “shooting the breeze.” You can check her Words, Wit & Wisdom here. I’ll be in touch with Diana about which books she wants to choose as a prize.
Great Captions on Wednesday’s Picture
My little grandson was very cute reading the paper some years ago. And your captions were very cute too. Nyla had my little guy looking at the market page to check about buying Fisher Price stock. Sev
eral of you had him searching for the comic section instead of the news. I don’t know about my grandson, but that could definitely be me. I’m always ready to read what we called the “funnies” or the “funny papers.” And it seems I can remember my parents and others calling the comics the “pink pages.”
I could definitely agree with those of you who said he was complaining about all the election news. Linda M. went another step and had him complaining about being misquoted. Seems he made a campaign promise of free ice cream on every Thursday and the news people had gotten it wrong and said free ice cream every day. Sure to bankrupt the country. 🙂 Peggy had him complaining about the price, saying it had gone up from a nickel. That would have been a while back. I do remember nickel candy bars, but guess, at that time, I wasn’t paying much attention to what newspapers cost when I’d rather spend my nickels on that candy. There were more great caption suggestions like the one about “free puppies,” but with my grandson, it would be more like “free lizard.” He didn’t get the love dogs, any dogs gene like his sisters did.
So thank you all for your fun captions. I did a lot of smiling when I read them. As to the caption I would put? I’m sitting here going back in time to when my grandson was this age. He was such a sweet kid and still is but now he’s about six foot tall. So, keeping in mind what he liked as a kid, I’ll give his picture this caption. “Look, Grammy. There’s a dinosaur show at the museum.”
New Photo
Okay, so now’s your chance to put words into this bull’s head. What is he saying? Or about to say? Come up with a caption and post it here in a comment to have a chance to be next Sunday’s winner of your choice of one of my autographed books and another grab bag book by a different author. Any caption will do as long as you remember to keep it family friendly. I can’t wait to see what you come up with this time.
As always, thanks for reading. You people are so much fun to be around.

“I’ve got a longer tongue than you!”
(Hope this comes through Ann. I thought the picture would show when I pasted) If it doesn’t, I’m sorry.
Author
That’s one very funny picture, Loretta. I clicked on the link and saw that long tongue. You look ready to back up a bit. 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
“My face is tongue licking delicious!!!” 🙂
Author
Indeed, Melissa. Fun caption. Thanks for stopping by.
He says I have an itch can you come closer and scratch it for me I will show you right where it is!
Uh, Peggy, I think he’s going to have to keep trying to scratch that itch with his tongue. Those horns look a little sharp. I believe I’ll keep my distance. LOL.
My tongue can cover my nose.. nana nana boo boo! I can do something you cant do!
Your caption made me laugh, Patricia. And he is so right. I can’t do that with my tongue and I’m sort of glad of that!! Nana nana boo boo. LOL.
“That new gluten-free, grain-free combo is lip-smackin’ good, no wait I like grain!”
This was hard to think like a steer. LOL
Cows can stare at you with interesting and blank expressions at the same time, Linda. But this fellow looked like he might like to have a conversation about food for sure. Lip smacking good fits the photo.
That pizza looks yummy with that pineapple on it. Can i get some too?
Pineapple on pizza is good, Lisa, but I don’t think I’ll try sharing any with this fellow. He might “horn” me out of the way to get the whole thing. 🙂
That pizza looks yummy. Can i get some too?
Boy that ice cream cone looks good. Why don’t you share it with me. I can almost taste it.
!
This guy would make short work of an ice cream cone, Deborah. I don’t believe I’d want to give him a lick of mine. 🙂
Is this how you pose for a selfie picture?
That’s sort of like some of my selfies turn out, Connie. But those don’t last long on my cell phone. Delete buttons work really well. LOL
Barnyard pictures again?!! Is my face clean?
That’s cute, Sharon. You have to look your best for those barnyard pictures.
“Sorghum molasses! You’re putting out sorghum molasses for me?” Kathleen ~ Lane Hill House
They do put molasses or something similar in cow feed, Kathleen, so you could be right on the money. 🙂
Yum! That was good!
Author
That’s the caption I thought of too, Ola. Thanks for playing.
What? Peanut butter? now wonder i am still licking it off the roof of my mouth
Author
That’s a good one, Rory. Best keep that peanut butter jar away from this fellow. 🙂
What happened to my salt block?
Author
Definitely a possibility, Evelyn.
No pockets….no tissue….you do what ya gotta do!
Author
Funny, Marji, but your caption made me laugh.
“I don’t care how many calories it had! That was worth every one of them!”
Author
Sometimes you just have to ignore that calorie count, Karen. Especially is you don’t mind looking big as a cow. LOL.
