PUZZLERIA! SLICES: OVER (1110 + 98) SERVED
Blue Plate Special Of The Week:
All-day picnic dishing
You are packing an all-day picnic basket:
🍵🍺Begin by including two beverages.
🍛Combine the letters of the two beverages, change one letter, and rearrange the result to spell a luncheon dish.
🍳To this, add a vowel and rearrange to spell a breakfast dish.
🍗To this, add a consonant and rearrange to spell a dinner dish.
💿To this, add a consonant and rearrange to spell what these dishes may be served on, in a two-word term.
What are these six picnic items?
Bonus Blue Plate second helping:
☕To the letters in the two words denoting what these dishes may be served on, subtract a P and add a T to form two words: a hot beverage to enjoy during the evening campfire (with s’mores!) and the luscious froth that floats on the brim of that beverage.
Dad’s Boot Rear Appetizer:
Spoonerfuls o’ food fit for the famished
Write a caption for each of the 15 numbered images pictured here, then spoonerize each caption in some manner to name something you can eat or drink.
For example, an image of a father kicking a burglar or other intruder in the posterior could be captioned “boot rear” which, when spoonerized, becomes “root beer.”
To further help you as you solve, fifteen hints appear below:
The type of food (Meat, Sweet, Dairy, etc.) appears in green.
The number of words each caption contains appears in (parentheses).
The number of words in each food-answer appears in [brackets].
(Numbers 2, 4, 5, 8 and 11 are the most far-fetched of the fifteen captions/foods.)
1. Veggie (2 words in the caption) [2 words in the food]
2. Veggie; Note: Before you spoonerize the caption to reveal the food, you must first flip the third-last letter of its first word 180-degrees along the axis perpendicular to the surface it is written on. (2) [2]
3. Legume (2) [1]
4. Meat (4) [2] Spoonerize only the first and third of the 4 caption words to reveal the food.
5. Meat (2) [2]
6. Meat (2) [1 word, but sometimes written as 2]
7. Meat (2) [1]
8. Porridge (2) [2]
9. Sweet (3) [2] Spoonerize only the first and third of the 3 caption words to reveal the food.
10. Sweet (3) [2] Spoonerize only the first and third of the 3 caption words to reveal the food.
The third word does not begin with a consonant sound, so the spoonerization is similar to the likes of “ginger ale” becoming “injure jail.”
11. Sweet (3) [2] Spoonerize only the first and third of the 3 caption words to reveal the food.
And, you are advised to write the caption Ebonically.
12. Dairy (2) [2]
13. Dairy (2) [2]
14. Pasta (2) [2]
15. Meat (2) [2]
Brandy Name Slice:
A nightcap to cap off the night?
Reverse the letters in the brand name of something you drink to spell something you wear.
What is it that you wear?
What might you drink?
Riffing Off Shortz Slices:
Erconstructive obdily usrgery
Will Shortz’s May 27th NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle reads:
Name part of the human body. Switch the first two letters to get a two-word phrase for something that is worrisome. What is it?
Puzzleria!’s Riffing Off Shortz Slices read:
ONE:
Name part of the human body associated with contemplation.
Switch the first two letters and change a later vowel to a different vowel to get a part of the human body associated with audition. What is it?
TWO:
Name part of the human body.
Change the first letter to the first letter of an adjacent body part which includes one end of the first body part. Switch the first two letters of this result to get the first name of a Scandinavian actress. To find her last name, switch the first two letters of another body part.
Who is this actress?
THREE:
Name part of the body often considered to be vulnerable. Switch the first two letters to get a two-word comparative phrase for what a _____ dancer often possesses vis-a-vis, say, a ballet dancer. What is this body part?
Hint: the word in the blank echoes the word “ballet” and is a part of the vulnerable body part.
FOUR:
Name part of the human body. Switch the first two letters to get the last name of a past muckraking journalist/photographer. What is this human body part and who is the journalist/photographer?
Hint: The relatively primitive camera this journalist used had a part called a diaphragm, which is also a human body part. Were the jounalist alive today he would use a camera with a part serving the same function as the diaphagm... and that part is the answer to this puzzle!
FIVE:
Name part of the human body. Move the first two letters to the end of the word to get something much shorter than a homonym of another part of the human body. What are these two body parts?
Every Friday at Joseph Young’s Puzzleria! we publish a new menu of fresh word puzzles, number puzzles, logic puzzles, puzzles of all varieties and flavors. We cater to cravers of scrumptious puzzles!
Our master chef, Grecian gourmet puzzle-creator Lego Lambda, blends and bakes up mysterious (and sometimes questionable) toppings and spices (such as alphabet soup, Mobius bacon strips, diced snake eyes, cubed radishes, “hominym” grits, anagraham crackers, rhyme thyme and sage sprinklings.)
Please post your comments below. Feel free also to post clever and subtle hints that do not give the puzzle answers away. Please wait until after 3 p.m. Eastern Time on Wednesdays to post your answers and explain your hints about the puzzles. We serve up at least one fresh puzzle every Friday.
We invite you to make it a habit to “Meet at Joe’s!” If you enjoy our weekly puzzle party, please tell your friends about Joseph Young’s Puzzleria! Thank you.
