have oregano, will travel


This is not what it looks like. Trust me...it isn't.

Last night Edgar's mom came over to cook us dinner. She brought all her ingredients with her, including this baggie of oregano, which gave Edgar and me a good laugh.

I sure hope she doesn't get pulled over by a police officer on her way home. I'd hate for her to get arrested over oregano.

Have oregano will travel. My grandmother used to always carry her own seasonings and tea bags with her. Looked like a minimart exploded in her purse. I like how you've captured the plastic baggie with minimal color.

Years ago, my husband was almost arrested for having a false aralia plant. The veteran cop knew exactly what it was, but was having so much fun watching the rookie cop mistake the plant for something else and get really worked up over nothing that he let things go way farther than he should have. You know he was just looking for a good laugh to tell the boys at the precinct... but my husband didn't find the idea of false imprisonment very funny at all. (Have to admit, I did.)

that's a bit like what happened in that TV show 'spaced'
"this aint weed," says one of the chavs who stole it. "it's oregano"
"how can you tell?"
"i'm a catering student"

this looks difficult to draw (no pun intended), well done!
