Every Friday, we feature comics by illustrators we love. Here’s today’s, by the wonderful Grace Farris. Does yours ring true? :)
P.S. 8 great Instagram accounts and books I could write.

Ha! I’m a Capricorn but definitely not disciplined. I swear I should have been born an Aquarius.
Same, not Capricorn at all (my momand sister’s are both born in January and classic caps). I was born right in the cusp (dec. 22nd) and always read both Capricorn and Sagittarius- sag is ALWAYS way more me.
have you done your natal chart? I’ve spent my whole life thinking I’m not a capricorn, but when I read about my moon and rising sign, it all seemed to fit into a complete picture! I highly recommend it.
In real life, I’m a Scorpio and in salad life I’m still a Scorpio and I can really be indecisive. Sometimes I don’t know whether to go for what is good or what is too good :)
Cosign. – a virgo who wanted the beets and the watermelon!
Sag/scorpio cusp and yeah, I would love me a chopped salad with a steak in it. That said, “gets bored easily” would be a lot more accurate than “short attention span” and less insulting. I don’t expect silly zodiac stuff to be accurate but I do expect it to not project an openly negative trait on me? :-|
Spot on for Sagi! I pretty much fall for every chopped salad that’s on a menu. The more stuff the better. I also just bought a mezzaluna knife to make easier chopped salads at home.
Capricorn here who does not like endive, and appreciates some mad chaos in my salads. Going over to hang out with the Cobb and steak salad peeps.
Hah! I’m a Libra and I was nodding my head in agreement until I saw “wants to please.” ?
That’s so not me.
Taurus is so perfectly spot on for me!
Me too!!
Ha! No, I’m a Cancer and these are never correct for me. We’re always supposed to be plain and boring I guess, especially the “plan your wedding by your zodiac” ones. Cute take on it though!
My boyfriend is a Cancer and I would say he’s the opposite of emotional, indirect (he’s a very matter of fact type person).
Pisces is spot on!
I really hate salad so I was eager to see what mine was. What do you know – – caprese, the only “salad” I actually like, was mine! Did this illustrator read my mind?
Ew – no. Caesar Salad is so boring and dull and lazy. No Leo worth their salt is so bland.
So accurate! Beets + disciplined all the way xoxo
Yes yes yes to my Caesar star! Particularly if those red bits are steak, not tomatoes (the horror!)
I was horrified to see tomatoes in there too, Suzyn!! Never have I seen a Caesar with tomatoes, but raw tomatoes are my mortal enemy no matter where they show up.
As a Cancer, I do like spinach salads. But I load them with lots of yummy stuff.
forgot to add “most likely to get stabbed in the back” on leo ;)
im a sagittarius, but also my moon sign is leo so im gonna run with that one
At my desk at work I just did a total wing it, unplanned lunch: cut up half an avocado, a banana, and sectioned a ruby red grapefruit onto a plate and sprinkled with Maldon sea salt. Opened Cup of Jo to read while I ate. Wondered as I scrolled down what my Salad Sign would be. Libra=fruit salad. Boom! Nailed it!
hahaha that is awesome!!!
ugh. my due date was 1/20 and i always resent being accused of being ‘disciplined, orderly’ just because my mom had a c-section on 1/8. i should have been an aquarius and my personality totally reflects that. lol
My mom had a c-section and I’ve wondered this about myself too… I’m a leo but don’t fit many of the stereotypes (I’m shy, for one).
This just opened up an entire world for me of would-be Zodiac babies born into the wrong sign. O_O
I was due 1/21 and my mom had c section 1/18. I am literally nothing like a Capricorn but am very much like an Aquarius. Maybe I’ll just go by Aquarius from now on so I can enjoy these silly games!
This is hilariously spot on. I’m a Virgo, and could also be a Taurus (give me all the beets!) who wishes she was an Aries (enthusiastic and sexy? yes, please!).
Cosign. – a virgo who wanted the beets and the watermelon!
Nope! I’m Virgo but I would ick the Aquarius Caprese.
Anyone else from the south bothered that the “black bean and corn salad” isn’t called by its true name, Cowboy Caviar? Haha.
Usually I don’t agree with these zodiac comparisons – i feel like aries is always off! – but I’ve never felt more seen than being compared to a bread salad.
Spot on (I’m a Leo), except I’m not eating romaine right now due to the recall.
Aquarius here — been eating caprese every day this week for dinner. Pasta and caprese, rice and banchan and caprese, coffee and caprese. I LOVE CAPRESE.
SAME!!!!!!
Same!!
Wow! Mine is SO accurate. This might be the most accurate zodiac determination I’ve ever seen!
I’m a Leo and Caesar is always my go-to :)
Panzanella, which is perfect because I make a killer grilled panzanella all summer. It’s my favorite dinner to make for a night of crisp white wine and music on the deck.
I’m a Taurus and beet-and-goat-cheese is my favorite combo.
Same! This is way more accurate than any horoscope I’ve ever read!
why the shade on gemini???
Agreed!!!!!! :(
Sorry Geminis!!! You’re great, I promise. I’m a Gemini too, as is Trump :O. A Cobb can go a lot of directions…
Haha. It’s entirely appropriate! I can explain myself to people more accurately in the context of salads.
Agreed. But the choice of salad is totally correct for me. I LOVE cobb salad, just too lazy to cut up all the bits and pieces when I am at home, so when I have the chance to go to a more oldfashioned place, I do have cobb salad. Oh and I have the good fortune to be born on Trump’s birthday (many years later …). But it would be worse to be born on Hitler’s or Stalin’s birthday!
Nice! Mine is Capricorn Salad, they say we are very disciplined people. Me, a giant procrastinator. But I feel the Endive salad. Thank you!
“¡So good to know there’s another procrastinator Capricorn1”, wrote while trying to finish the last 2 pages of her project that must be finished by tomorrow…
Another procrastinator Capricorn over here! I’m stubborn but not particularly orderly either.
I love it! I went and followed the artist! I once saw a print by the artist Striped Cat Studio and it was the houses of the zodiac, but actual houses for each sign. It was so much fun I had to get it! I’m so glad you’re back to posting the Friday cartoons. I’ve missed them!
First of all, this is fantastic. Perfect observations, Grace!
Secondly, I almost spit out my coffee when I read my husband’s descriptor (Scorpio). I tease him constantly about how often he describes his opinion on something as “ambivalent.” I’ve never known another person to use that word so much, and here it is! A true Scorpio, I guess. :)
libras as a fruit salad?!!?
Wow, read this as I took the first bite of my caprese sandwich! Yes I’m an Aquarius :)
This is hilarious because I’m a Scorpio and my favorite salad is the California Steakhouse from Chopt lol!
Ha ha. In real life I’m a Pisces, but in salad life I’m a Libra/Scorpio. Thanks for the giggle this Friday.
You guys should do a “beauty uniform” on Grace Farris! She would be great – lots of thoughts on clogs (see her shoutout in Vogue on this!) and button-up silk shirts for work in her career as an amazing doctor :)
Spot on for this Pisces! Bonus points for adding any combination of tomato/fresh basil/balsamic :)
