Today’s clue words are all in the ralis95 clue word database.  Two of the jumbles appear to be new, but we’ve definitely seen “tomot” and “ledyie” in previous Jumbles.  The answer letter layout was a twisty twelve letter jumble.  I thought it was thoroughly cryptic.

Nice cartoon of a master chef, and his young protegé.  What are they cooking?  How should I know!  Has anything yer Uncle Rave ever written anything that made you think that he knows how to cook?  Heck no!  Probably something fancy, like coq au vin.  Does this look like a famous chef to anyone, or just a generic chef?  Hmm.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
