I have not seen Prell in ages but can recall the scent from childhood.
In the early 80s my husband, toddler, mother-in-law and I took a quick trip to Panama City Beach and stayed in a borrowed apartment with a beat up Volkswagen Bug as our transport.We came off the beach sand/sun bedraggled and starving and found a stripmall restaurant in that 80s dark brown heavy woodwork with black naugahyde seating now known as "pleather." We were the only people there. We ordered. Soon after our salads, bowls of what looked like orange sorbet appeared. We asked what it was and the waiter responded "palate cleanser." We looked at our attire, chipped china, low brow furniture, and once the waiter left, laughed ourselves drunk. Thanks for the memory jogger.
Given the theme which I didn't fully catch onto, I wanted verity to be verita so badly I was blinded and couldn't finish without help. Sometimes one cannot see the saltus for the abores.
@Justin And I have a bone to pick about the Wordle solution today. Glad we have this opportunity to vent. LOL
Can you say "Wednesday Rebus" three times fast?
@Chris "Alas, poor Yorick!...Where be your gibes now?" Adding to my list of reasons to require high school students to study Shakespeare and grow up to my NYT crossword solvers.
@Jim I was certain the phrase was "wreck and ruin" so Enna made no sense. I gave up and did the puzzle check. Learned to my delight (and dismay) the phrase is "wrack and ruin."
@CaptainQuahog Helpful information because that clue left me clueless. Thank you.
@Jane Wheelaghan Can, John, Loo and toilet are all words referring to a lavatory (or rest room).
@Tom I know that word only because of Shakespeare's As You Like It! 7 Stages of Man speech.
The app on my Ipad does not have a rebus button. I do have a rebus button on my laptop. Is there a simple solution?
