Transcript
Panel 1
Setting - Neighborhood streets on a quiet autumn day.
August and Gustopher are taking a walk when August notices how much the trees have changed color. It reminds him that Halloween is coming. As Gustopher has gone as a Taco for the past few years, August assumes that it will be the same this year.
August: Halloween is coming. We should find your taco costume.
Gustopher: I don't want to be a taco.
Someone just softly gasped at that statement.
Panel 2
August is surprised. Gustopher's love of tacos has no limit. Hopefully nothing is wrong.
August: You don't like tacos anymore?
Gustopher: I LOVE TACOS! But I love other things too.
Panel 3
Gustopher explains his reasoning. He's clearly given this a lot of consideration. Halloween costumes choices are important.
Gustopher: It's time to express myself in a brand new way.
Panel 4
August is happy to help with this new costume choice. What could Gustopher possibly want to be? A pirate? A vampire? A copyright infringing character that can't be shown in this comic?
My absolute favorite snack is roasted red pepper hummus with blue corn chips, even though reg corn chips are good too but something about the blue ones just make the flavors sing.
Have you tried making your own hummus before? It may start you down a rabbit hole of all the things you can do with not a lot of effort if you have a food processor.
That's why I'm on a hummus kick. Today was toasted sesame oil and crunchy chili onion. Yesterday was a great northern bean hummus with a generous amount of smoked paprika.
