Clue/Question:  The bill for their dinner didn’t seem correct.  They asked the waiter to – – –

Answer:  CHECK PLEASE

(An excellent stinky pun.  They could have made it RE-CHECK PLEASE too, as they would have said CHECK PLEASE a little earlier.  But, this was a fine pun.  Some waiters are a little sneaky.  They pad the bill, and hope you’re not paying that close attention.  Most are very honest though.

None of today’s clue words are new.  However, all of the jumbles are coming up as new.  All of them were pretty good.  The answer letter layout was a wonderful eleven letter jumble.  It did a fine job of disguising the final answer.

Classic fine dining restaurant scene.  It looks like the one woman is just getting to her coffee.  I like the the little container for the sugar and artificial sweetener packets.  One of the best Monday Jumbles in a long time, in my opinion.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
