Blondie

Welcome back, darling, it’s Day Three of Blondie’s Thanksgiving Recipes, and today we’re ending our feast on a high note: apple pie. But not just any apple pie, this is Blondie’s “Easy as Pie” Apple Pie, where cozy meets classic and every bite tastes like a warm hug with cinnamon on top. This one’s a family favorite, the kind of dessert that fills the whole house with that “Thanksgiving’s almost here” smell.  Crisp apples, buttery crust, and that golden, glossy top, it’s comfort food turned into a showpiece. No fancy tricks, no stress, just simple, delicious pie that always delivers. So grab your rolling pin, tie that apron, and let’s bake something that’ll have everyone asking for seconds before it’s even cool. Because around here, Thanksgiving isn’t Thanksgiving without a little sugar, spice, and Blondie-style love.  What You’ll Need: 6 big ol’ apples (Granny Smiths if you like it tart, Honeycrisps if you’re a sweetie) ¾ cup sugar (brown or white) 1 tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp nutmeg 2 tbsp flour 1 tbsp lemon juice (to keep the apples bright and zesty) 2 pie crusts  1 tbsp butter (for that glossy […]

Welcome back! It’s Day Two of Blondie’s Thanksgiving Recipes, and today we’re diving into one of my ride-or-die side dishes: Garlic Mashed Potatoes. These potatoes aren’t just a side, they’re the side. Creamy, dreamy, and loaded with roasted garlic and melted butter, a “Smash hit” at the dinner table. You know the kind: smooth enough to swirl your spoon through, rich enough to make you forget there’s still turkey coming. This recipe’s simple, classic, and perfect for your Thanksgiving table (or honestly, any night you need a little comfort). Whether you’re serving it up with gravy, turkey, or just eating it by the spoonful (no judgment) these mashed potatoes bring the kind of warmth that keeps everyone lingering around the table. So, grab those spuds, roast that garlic, and let’s whip up something so good it could be dinner all on its own. What You’ll Need:  2 lbs of potatoes Yukon Gold if you’re classy, Russets if you’re wild. 1 whole head of garlic (yes, the whole thing, don’t be shy). 4 tbsp butter (we don’t count calories in Blondie’s kitchen). ½ cup heavy cream  2 tbsp sour cream Salt […]

Hey there! Welcome to Day One of Blondie’s Thanksgiving Recipes!We’re kicking off this holiday feast with the kind of comfort food that never goes out of style: flaky, golden biscuits smothered in creamy, peppery sausage gravy. The kind of breakfast that makes you sigh a little after the first bite and maybe even go back for seconds. (Okay, thirds.) Thanksgiving might be about the big dinner, but Blondie says the real celebration starts with moments like this: a warm kitchen, coffee brewing, and everyone sneaking bites before the day even begins. So grab your mixing bowl, turn on some tunes, and let’s start this feast off right: with biscuits, gravy, and that Dagwood-approved smell of home. Ingredients For the Biscuits: 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder ½ tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt ½ cup (1 stick) cold butter, cut into cubes ¾ cup cold buttermilk (or milk + 1 tsp lemon juice as a quick substitute) For the Gravy: 1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or spicy, your call) ¼ cup all-purpose flour 2½ cups whole milk ½ tsp salt 1 tsp black pepper Optional: a pinch of […]

Hi, all! I hope you are recovering from your Thanksgiving feasts if you celebrate! Today, Saturday, November 26, is a very important day for comics history: the 100th birthday of Charles “Sparky” Schulz, the creator of Peanuts, one of the most beloved comic strips of all time. Usually, we only post about birthdays related to King Features comics, but Mr. Schulz was such an inspiration and good friend to so many of our cartoonists and had so much influence on the direction of not just comics but pop culture in the 20th century that we wanted to celebrate his legacy. Patrick McDonnell, the creator of MUTTS, spearheaded this project in collaboration with the Charles M. Schulz Museum to celebrate this special birthday! As you look around Comics Kingdom today, you will see many of cartoonists have contributed to this celebration by honoring Mr. Schulz in their comic strips. Here is a collection where you can see them all together!
