Libertarian family picks a restaurant

each person in car wants different dinner
family differs on food choices

Ahem. May I say that an editor of a major publication (okay, it was Parade) told me this was his favorite cartoon ever? He even asked for the original, to hang in his home!

This was also the very first cartoon I used in my Psychology Today blog, and I wrote about in Quick Fix,  too, for Psych Central. Food is a great frame for psychological issues. 🙂

And I called it a Libertarian family because they are just so darned independent! No sheep here!

From my weekly cartoon feature, Daily Special. For more info on how to subscribe to this cartoon series, check this out.
