Strip by: Kavviyenta

Garfield: Something smells good. What is it?
Jon: I'm going to bake a lasagna, Garfield. Do you wanna help?
Garfield: Let me think about it for a min... sure!
Jon: First we'll brown the hamburger with the tomato sauce and seasonings
Garfield: I'd better see if this stuff's fresh
Jon: Then we scoop the ricotta, slice the mozzarella and grate the parmesan
Garfield: I'd better see if this stuff's not fresh
Jon: Next, we'll lay a bed of noodles in the pan
Garfield: One for me, one for the lasagna. One for me...
Jon: And now we'll bake it for one hour at 375°
{TIME PASSES}
{Jon pulls his masterpiece out of the oven as Garfield watches eagerly}
Jon: And, voilà! It is-
Jon: OUCH!
{Jon, suddenly, lets go of the pan, causing him to drop a perfectly good lasagna onto the floor}
{Garfield doesn't seem disappointed as he happily scoops up the scraps when Jon finds the cause}
Jon: You wouldn't happen to know how this hole got in here would you?
Garfield: Rare oven mitt-eating moths, I suspect

The author writes:

Face it, Jon. Even if sampling is taken into account, there was no way Garfield wouldn't take the opportunity.
