My friend and fellow cacher Deadley is in town visiting from Calfornia. Thought it would only be appropriate to hide a cache in his honor.
We were at a local pub chatting and avoiding the trouble and strifes of our lives when he had to take a telephone call. When he got up, a slip of paper fell from his pocket onto the floor. I picked it up and read it. "OK - this is one weird shopping list." I thought. This is what his note said:
Elephant's Trunk
Bread and Honey
Bristol Hook
Crust of Bread
Donkey's Ears
Mutt and Jeff
North and South
On Your Jack
On Your Toad
Butcher's Hook
Hampton Wick
Daisy Roots
Frog and Toad
Loaf of Bread
Dog and Bone
He came back and ordered some dessert and insisted that it be "A la Mode".
I gave it a slightly higher difficulty just because of the varied sources of information out there and slightly differing uses. But all of these came from a single source, so easy as pie if you stumble on that exact same source.
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
