Jumble-aya! Crawfish pie?

🥁1: The Jumble pictured below was conceived and created by multi-talented Mathew Huffman, whose  “Conundrum Set” has been a regular feature on Puzzleria! since September 2018.
In this graphic Conundrum, Mathew instructs the solver to “unscramble these four Jumbles, one letter to each square, to form four common words... Now arrange the circles letters to form the surprise answer, as suggested by the cartoon.”
An automobile driver is pictured in the cartoon saying, “...and my aunt just got out of the hospital...” to which the auto mechanic replies, “I understand, sir...” 
The caption below the cartoon reads, “The Swedish auto mechanic listened to the driver’s ____ _____.”
The words in the blanks contain four and five letters.
Enjoy Mathew’s mastery.

🥁2: Name a food that is subject to fermentation, in six letters. 
Change the first letter to a T and rearrange to name a poor-quality drink that is the result of fermentation.


By-Two-Divisor Appetizer:
“Why not halve an appetizer?”

Slice a appetizer exactly in half. 
Move the second half to the front and insert a space after the first letter. 
The result, in two words, is a natural food you might have placed at the center of the appetizer (perhaps held in place by melted brie, or a toothpick). 
What are this appetizer and natural food?


MENU


Sitcom Sans Class Slice:
From “man of steal” to “man of the cloth”

Spoonerize the name an accomplished “larcenist” who became an accomplished evangelist. 
Saying the result aloud sounds like a five-letter adjective followed by a five-letter proper noun.
The adjective describes a classless past TV situation comedy with a classy theme song. The proper noun is the last name of the dysfunctional family on the sit-com.
Who is this “larcenist”-turned-evangelist? What is the sitcom?  

Riffing Off Shortz And Kalish Slices:
All agog for gin and nog

Will Shortz’s January 5th NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle, created by Evan Kalish of Bayside, New York, reads:
Think of an informal term for part of the human body that consists of two alcoholic beverages, one after the other. What is it?
Puzzleria!s Riffing Off Shortz And Kalish Slices read:
ENTREE #1
Consider the following verse:
“... Thus no longer with stocks and with pillories vexed,
Nor with work, jail, or sheriff perplexed, perplexed,
The mob men shall rule and the great men obey;
The world upon wheels shall be set all agog,
And blockheads and ______ ____ the reign of King Log...” 
The verse is an excerpt from a poem titled “A Song, dedicated to the Lovers of Wit, the Friends to Truth, and Good Government,” printed circa 1786 in the Massachusetts Centinel newspaper.
Take the first five letters in the word in the first blank. Spelling them backward spells the first name plus first letter of the last name of a puzzle maker. The remainder of the puzzle maker’s last name can be spelled by rearranging the sixth letter in the first blank plus the letters in the second blank. 
Who is this puzzle maker?
What words belong in the blank?
ENTREE #2
Think of an informal term for part of the human body that consists a word in the text of this puzzle that is spelled backward. 
In other words, in order to discover the answer one must reverse the order of the letters in the word.

  1. No comments yet? Really? We must do something about that!
    Happy Still-Kinda-New Year everyone!
    I can't believe Puzzleria! wasn't ready late last night! Oh well. We didn't eat out tonight. Mom talked to Bryan or Renae, then she yelled to me, "We're not eating out!", and that's really all I know about it. Never asked her why, I just accepted it. Actually, we have some bad weather coming our way tomorrow, so Bryan may have been preparing for the worst. Anyway, we ended up having food from Subway. Mom had an oven-roasted chicken sandwich, no chips and she drank something here, and I had a steak and cheese sandwich, SunChips and lemonade. Delicious! Then I solved the other puzzles and finally checked out these, not necessarily in that order. I've solved everything except the Dessert, and I'm more sure of the seven-letter word in the Schpuzzle than the five-letter word, but it makes sense to me anyway. Also, the Trumpet player part(why is it capitalized?)in Entree #6 seems a little superfluous, if I have the correct informal term.("That is" sort of covers it, IMHO, but then I am a cryptic crossword expert after all.)And technically, if I have the correct term in Entree #7, I haven't really found online the "honor" that corresponds to the anagram. Lego, I certainly hope you can clarify all this, and of course, provide a good hint for the Dessert. I hope tomorrow's weather situation doesn't keep us from communicating any further about everything. Pray for us here in AL, if you can. West Alabama's not supposed to get the worst of it, but you never know. BTW Paul's clues in the Prize Crossword for the supposed answers SITUATIONCOMEDY and HAMCURTAINS made no sense. Here they are, in that order:
    Is it complete? Show part of it in full(9,6)
    One beginning to position essential pockets in setter's coat? Good Lord!(3,8)
    Dowager Empress, if you can possibly parse either of those out and explain them to me, please do. BTW don't ask me to provide the definition I found for HAMCURTAINS. This is a family website, after all.

      "Sitcom" is shorthand for "situation comedy."

    2. How did I miss that? Thanks, Lego! Usually I can catch those hidden ones, but that one just didn't appear to me for some reason. I will say this: The clue he had for BUTTONHOLE was hilarious, but again I probably should avoid elaborating here.

  2. canberry --The answer is Mehitabel (from Archy and Mehitabel, one of the great American books by Don Marquis) -- look it up --it's delightful. You'll be enchanted. Archy was a cockroach who
    lived in a newspaper office and typed columns every night And Mehitabel was a cat who lived around in the alley. The book is a collection of Archy's views on the manners and mores of the times -- early 1900s til the 40s or so. A commentary of the fads and foibles of the times. His only problem was he was too lightweight to do capitals or punctuation on the typewriter so he uses a somewhat e e cummings style.

    You think think the world is nutty now - it was probably a lot more fun then Enjoy!

    I hope your family was not affected by the weather that hit last night. All my best -- D.E.

  3. DE, we really dodged a bullet yesterday! Thank God it wasn't too bad here! Now April 27, 2011, that was a terrible storm! Our power was off about three or four days! I never want to have to go through that again! Have you ever showered in the dark? It's terrible! Lately the most that ever happens here is the satellite messes up, and we can't watch TV. That's it. BTW I like MEHITABEL
    (ME HIT A BELL)! Good wordplay!

    ReplyDelete
  4. cby -- that whole storm started right down here in my neighborhood,though my area here in Texas was way up in the NW corner and we didn't get a drop! Could have used some for my pretty cows and all the other critters here.Though we'd had earlier floods and tornados and one lightning storm several years ago which burned down my house and 50 years' worth of gorgeous stuff in my life, including many of my husband's artwork. He was a superb artist and cartoonist and had done a lot of 60s underground stuff In fact, he was Fat Freddy from the Fabulous Furry
    freak Brothers. I lost a lot of archives.
    Don't worry about the power going out. It's really nice and peaceful.. I was in Belize where we'd built a house and had plenty to do there. Fix what you can when you can.. Best wishes D.E.

    p.s. get a copy of Archy & Mehitabel. It's cheerful.

      Great post.
      The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers are "iconic Americana"... creative, influential, and epitomical (my coinage) of a subculture that was unfairly and ignorantly dismissed and dissed.

  5. Late Monday/Early Tuesday Hints:

    Schpuzzle:
    Change a letter in the shorter word to spell a suit.
    The first four letters of the longer word are the first four letters in a screen name Puzzlerian!s are familiar with.

    Conundrums:
    #1. Hard-luck tale
    #2. The food: What Rocky might have yelled had his girlfriend instead been named after Ms. Stein.
    The drink: Replace its first two letters with "ca" to spell a former common material used for the strings of violins and violas.

    By-Two-Divisor Appetizer:
    The natural food comes in a half-shell, after cracking.
    The appetizer sounds shady.

    ROSAKS:
    ENTREE #1
    "And blockheads and ______ ____ the reign of King Log...”
    Another name for jacks + another name for golf-ball size precip
    ENTREE #2
    The singers of "The Lonely Goatherd" used theirs to great effect.
    ENTREE #3
    Take your pulse.
    ENTREE #4
    In your auto body, it may be in the trunk. In your human body, it may be on your trunk.
    ENTREE #5
    Add an "e" to the informal hyphenated term for part of the human body and rearrange the letters to form a sometimes hyphenated large tool consisting of a curved, pointed piece of metal with a long handle joined to the middle, used for breaking up rocks or the ground.
    ENTREE #6
    A shorthand term for "that is" is the ending of the informal term for part of the human body.
    ENTREE #7
    The civilian war correspondent was Margaux and Mariel's grand-dad.

    Veggie Dessert:
    Admittedly, this could be called a corny puzzle. Stick a feather in it and call it what you like. Let us call it heavenly, also. Forget, however, "I buried Paul!" Recall, rather, "I strangled Garfunkel!" The (crusty, not-so-crumby) end!

    1. A vegetarian cannot eat the ear, elbow, head, heel or heart of an animal, because they all might include "meaty parts." (Hair would probably be okay to eat, I suppose, because it is not really meaty. So, in retrospect, I probably should not have included it on this list. "Sole" however, would be verboten for vegetarian consumption, whether it were "fillet of sole" or "sole of foot."
      But sometimes ears, elbows, heads, heels and hearts would not be verboten for vegetarians... because such words have multiple (or at least double) meanings.

    I thought Entrée #4 was clever, as the word split in the clue words and he split in the answer was different.
    Did not like the overuse of informal names but that arose from the riffoffing.
    For the Dessert, the answer was obvious. Hence, it did not seem like a puzzle.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Also I thought the Jumble (as the newspaper versions) was very easy. My method to make the newspaper version more interesting is to solve it totally without the use of a writing implement.

    1. I sent it via email to a friend in town who LOVES the Jumble. She wrote back that it was 'priceless, but not easy to solve." But that she loved it! So at least someone thought it was a challenge!

    2. My mom sometimes finds the Jumble hard to solve. Just today she needed help with the answer and one of the scrambled words. She'd probably never solve the whole thing without me.

    3. I suppose the ability to 'see' through scrambled words, not to mention to 'get' the daily joke and thus solve it, must be some sort of genetic talent....improved by practice.
