I like Riddle Three, and it might take a while.
Enjoy!
Riddle One: I spit like bacon, am made with an egg,
I have plenty of backbone but lack good legs,
I peel like an onion but still remain whole,
I'm long like a flagpole, yet fit in a hole
What am I?
Riddle Two: What are these three related items? When I am placed somewhere I will never stand up. Whatever you give me I will eat. When I go I never return.
Riddle Three: The answer to each clue is a single, 100-point word, or a word whose letters add up to 100, with a = 1, b = 2.
i. Peanut butter tastes like this.
ii. The hat a Dad wears.
iii. To fire a chef,
iv. A smart timepiece.
v. Figured it out again.
vi. Where a kid can sleep.
vii. The magical fruit leaves you doing this.
viii. Betrayed for this much silver.
ix. A baked good that is height challenged.
x. A sticky way to neaten your hair.
The first one is a snake. The second one is stove, fire, and smoke, and for the last one....
ReplyDeleteI know the first one is nutty, and the last one is honeycomb, and I forget the rest. :P
Great solving, and now I'm glad i added the hard one as the new third. I actually got the stove, fire and smoke, though I couldn't get the snake.
