Snoopy being unable to remember Charlie Brown’s name is almost like Patrick Star being unable to recognize his own wallet.

Whistle for me!!!

Well, I was looking through an old recipe book and noticed this detail on the measurement table.

So, a “jill” or gill is an archaic unit measurement for quarter of a pint.

In looking this up on Wikipedia, I discovered this:

So, I suppose you could have an older pair of dining cars who are Jack and Jill.

I was reading Meet Me in St. Louis by Sally Benson (on which the Judy Garland film is based). Being the geekaboose that I am, the mention of the railroad jumped out at me.

The expressman would work in regards to an express car. If you’re familiar with the Wreck of Old 97 (which CB mentions in the Old London show), that mail train had one express car on its consist.

Anyway, on the odd chance that you need OC ideas or are writing Poppa’s and Belle’s backstory or a historical AU, there you go.

Happy Palm Sunday, everyone! 🌴

Has anyone ever noticed that even though Schroeder is a huge Beethoven fan, he only uses the English pronunciation of the composer’s name, rather than the German (where the “v” is pronounced as an “f”)?

(To be fair, he might have pronounced it properly in the comics.)

I am of the opinion that Schroeder and Lucy both have the same love language, but they speak different dialects.

Can you guess which language I’m referring to, and what those dialects are?

@madamemunny Not everything goes exactly as planned…

Concept art for a series of one shots that I want to do in connection to my fic, The Beethoven Debate.

I was listening to “Joie De Vivre” by Albert Behar, and I started picturing Lucy ice skating while the accordion player, Sebastian, provides her music. (Schroeder isn’t as enthusiastic about this arrangement.)

A little background for some of the ideas if you’re not familiar with the comics: Lucy likes accordions, but Schroeder does not.

Lucy likes figures skating, but Schroeder once refused to partner with her.

12/7/71

So, you can imagine Schroeder’s annoyance that an accordion player would swoop in to help her out now.

One of the underlying jokes of The Peanuts franchise is that the characters are children who act like adults.

In which case, if Schulz had ever officially portrayed the gang as adults, would the joke be reversed to them behaving like children?

Concept art involving a rivalry between Schroeder and an accordion player named Sebastian. When the question of whether an accordion player or a piano player is stronger, the boys try to find out.

If you’re familiar with the comics, you probably know Schroeder does NOT like accordions, so this is personal.

One thing I enjoy about old classic movies is when there is a lot of attention to detail (even though you have to have repeat viewings to notice them).

Take this scene from The Music Man for example.

Only on a recent viewing did I notice there are bananas on the counter.

It stands to reason that there would be bananas in the shop because the clerk seems to be making banana splits for Tommy and Zaneeta, but if the set designers hadn’t put bananas in the shot, you probably wouldn’t have noticed (or you might have assumed that the bananas were stored out of sight, if you thought about it at all).

It’s little details like these that make the world feel more real and gives even extras hints of personality.

How do you think a tank would look like in StEx?

Worried that Schroeder might not like her due to the Westermarck Effect, Lucy tries to give him space until he is able to notice her, and she ends up joining the debate team to fill up her newfound free time

Enjoy an accordion cover of “Linus and Lucy” while you read 😉

So, in honor of Groundhog Day, my dad came into my room at 6:00 am and played “I Got You, Babe” on his phone.
