I actually knew what a bakewell tart was thanks to Derrick K Knight, who fills me in on all the Britishisms I don’t understand in his blog. Do you read his blog?

Superb, Judy. I, too, thought 7 was excellent, but 9 and 10 were great as well. (I actually had to think about 10 for a sec…)

I sometimes wonder if I should explain my logic, but decided it was better to let people figure them out on their own. Glad you “got” number 10.
