Wonderful answers! I'm sending Flo back to the drawing board just for a tweak. Niki got #8. Sondi, try again. wave

As I've grown older, I've found that my memory is not as good as I used to think it was.

Good answer, Marian! wave

Bob, feel free to answer, please. I'll tell people to try again, but that doesn't give them dibs. smile

That's correct! smile

I realize that some things are said differently in different places (french fries vs chips), so Flo's answer might also have been correct. smile
