minus-squareLCP@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21 year agoHeh fun theme. Not too keen on trying a literal “Dessert with split peas” or “Salad dressing with chopped liver”. As Chris Remo said, these are clues reminiscent of cryptic crosswords. Got stuck at 32A and 46D unfortunately.
