May 09, 2010 Hypercross Puzzle

I have a quibble with #8, but #6 is funny enough to counter it.

[2] I agree with your quibble. Never heard of the item in the 2nd pic.

[3] I still don't know what the item in the second picture is (though I do know what the answer is).

Edit: I kept Googling different spellings of the sounds and finally found it and learned what it is. Never heard of it.

[4] it's a Spanish doughnut that is fried-dough pastry-based snacks, sometimes made from potato dough, that originated in Spain.

Just not able to get #6, any salt?

[6] You probably played the game when you were a little kid.

[6]I'd give salt, but I need permission first.

Thanks [8], I got it from that. Never heard of the game before though, one of the liabilities of being an immigrant I suppose.
Very clever though, nice clueing.

YAY!! POst & Solve!

Nice puzzle - you made her proud.
#6 is quite creative - made me laugh!

[8] I initially thought you were slamming LakeLivin' and I for encouraging restraint in salt-giving... and perhaps you were. But it wasn't until I read [9] that I realized just how clever your salt was. Nice!

#6 was excellent. Thanks for the great job, nocca!

Help for clue #8! I'm stuck! I know the second picture but have no clue on the first. Bummer.

Stuck on #1

Nevermind, I got it.

I still don't get #10 - although I figured it out.

I'm so stupid. I solved this on the day it was released (Mother's Day), but apparently I forgot to click on "Check Your Answers".

I only saw today, 2 weeks later, that it's still unsolved for me. Stupid, stupid, stupid. (It cost me 5 precious points, since I also stupidly didn't see that there were 3 hypers released that night until the bonus points were gone.)
