Farideh:
Comic's up.
Clinton, stop putting your mother through the wringer. Get your *ss into gear and buy some new groceries! Surely you can cook as well? Otherwise, raid the deli section, buy some breads, roast chicken, and salads, and turn it into a buffet dinner.
Gnabberwocky:
I feel like this strip is a setup for something. I'm trying to think of what it could be a setup for, but nothing really comes to mind. There aren't any characters who work at grocery stores or restaurants, right?
Is it cold in here?:
There's Willow, at the Hex-Mex Pagan Taqueria.

I think you may have nailed it. This has to be a setup for a Willow interaction, right? What other path could this storyline take?
BenRG:
I'm increasingly wondering if Jeph is planning a weird "Mrs Augustus aged in reverse" arc where, as the other characters mature towards conventional adulthood, Mrs A goes the other direction to a lifestyle that would not be strange to college students - Living on take-outs, a long string of emotionally-meaningless hook-ups and partying all night with drugs and rock & roll. He's doing this either as a memorial to his own lost youth or to ask a question: "This is okay in college. Why does everyone automatically think that you're not allowed to do it if you're older than 30 years?"
Oh, yeah, and there is also a very clear in-universe message that she does not suffer from empty nest syndrome and she is rather enjoying her new 'unhealthy' lifestyle. Apart from with Cosmo. Nothing is more important to her than Cosmo living in luxury!
