Dessert Schpuzzle Of The Week:
Your taste buds need watering

Note: The following dessert schpuzzle was created by a friend of mine named Mary:
Add a letter to a word associated with “mouth-watering” to form a word for a mouth-watering dessert. 
What dessert is this?
Hint: The last three letters of the dessert spell a synonym of an ingredient in the dessert.

Appetizer Menu

Gender Neutral Appetizer: 
Anatomy of a nation

Divide the name of a country into three parts. Rearrange the letters of two of the three parts to name two body parts that both women and men have. 
But don’t touch one of the three parts. It is already the name of a body part that both women and men have (without any need of rearrangement whatsoever). 
What is this country?


Odium At The Odean Appetizer:
Eyeballing the picture show

Take a 5-letter word for an “intense eyeballer.” Double one of its letters. The first four and final four letters of this result spell synonyms of one another. Rearrange the letters of each synonym to form two new words.
Place the first new word before a 5-letter noun to form the second and third words of a 3-word film title beginning with “The...”
Place the second new word after the same 5-letter noun to form something present in projection rooms of odeans and cinema houses of the past.
What are these two 4-letter synonyms?

Riffing Off Shortz And Chaikin Slices:
"Sprites! Camaros! Traction!"

Will Shortz’s September 2nd  NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle, created by Eric Chaikin of Los Angeles, reads:
The name of the film director David Lynch conceals the word AVIDLY in consecutive letters, spanning his first and last names. Can you think of a famous film director whose first and last names conceal a 6-letter name of car, past or present, in consecutive letters?
Puzzleria!s Riffing Off Shortz And Chaikin Slices read:

Note: This first riffing-off Slice (ENTREE #1) was composed by jan, a very bright puzzle solver and creator. He posted it very briefly on the Blainesville blog this past Sunday morning (September 2nd), just minutes after the puzzle was uploaded to the NPR Weekend Edition Sunday web site. Although the puzzle jan created may be a riff-off, it also stands on its own as a quite clever poser:
ENTREE #1: 
Name a famous film director whose first and last names conceal a 6-letter name of car in consecutive letters. Translate the director’s first name into a second language. Change one letter of a shorter nickname of that name. Translate the result back into the first language to form the last part of the director’s name. Who is this director?

ENTREE #2:
The name of the film director Denis Sanders conceals the car name NISSAN in consecutive letters, spanning his first and last names. 
Can you think of a 2-word isolated place in New Zealand (that is famous for its fauna) that conceals a 4-letter name of car, past or present, in consecutive letters?

ENTREE #3:
The name of the film director Yasujiro Ozu, if you reverse the spelling of his last name, conceals the word OUZO in consecutive letters, spanning his first name and reversed last name. 
Can you think of a somewhat famous film director whose first and last names (without any reversal, and in six consecutive letters) conceal a two-word order you might hear at a wine bar, in two words?
Hint: The second word in the two-word order is a shortened form of a longer word. 

ENTREE #4:
The name of the film director David Lynch conceals the word AVIDLY in consecutive letters, spanning his first and last names. 
Can you think of a reasonably famous film director whose first and last names contain, in consecutive letters, two 3-letter roofing materials?
Now try this one: Change an “m” to an “n” in the full name of a somewhat famous film director.  The result contains a container, in two consecutive 3-letter words? The director’s last name just so happens to be a brand name of a product usually packaged in such a container.
Who are these two directors?

ENTREE #5:
Can you think of a puzzle-maker whose last name does not at all conceal a 4-letter Asian beverage, but does somewhat conceal (at least anagramatically) a liquid of a similar density to the beverage. 
Rearrange the letters in the puzzle-maker’s first name to name the main ingredient in a creamier beverage popular in Mexico. 
Who is this puzzle-maker?
