Find a word and its container for each of the clues below. For example, "meat in a river (6,3)" -> T(ham)es. The numbers are the word lengths of the container and contained words respectively

-1. Incinerate in a tree (8,4)
-2. Monkey in a frolic (5,3)
-3. Injured in a house plant (8,4)
-4. Behind in a weapon (7,4)
-5. Drink in a dance (7,3) - Spanish ballroom dance in triple time, and the drink is long and alcoholic (1222111)
-6. Snooze in a drink (8,3)
-7. Circle in a confection (8,4)
-8. Transversely in a sport (8,5)
-9. Flat in a President (9,5)
-10. And the rest in a vegetable (9,3)

You've got the ETC bit fine michele, but I can't find "vetching" in the dictionary think

Try a two-syllable vegetable with the ETC spread across the syllable break...

michele is very smart! I always have to look up her answers. But, you are missing a "l" in your search. Ling, not ing.

Thanks oldbroad. blush
Rog, no worries. Gardening is one of my passions and I have grown this as an annual for its prolific trailing multi-colored flowers. smile

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
