aaaaaaaaaaand I'm still awake. Yeah. I was thinking of something else. Tonight while at work, I was at the store for a total of an hour and a half all by myself. Luckily, though, it was pretty slow. So while I was there I played a word game with myself....I'm not sure why I thought of it, since it's been years since I played it, but I have a couple for you...they're easy enough.

Ok, the game is called "Hink-Pink." I give a clue, and the answer is a rhyming phrase. In the case of a Hink-Pink, it's a one-syllable rhyme. There's also a Hinky-Pinky, two syllables, a Hinkaty-Pinkaty, three syllables, and so on. So. Here's the example:
Hink-Pink: A Salmon cassarole.

Got it? Can you think of the answer?

Fish Dish.

One last note - although the clue tends to put the words in order for you, that's not always the case, but it's somewhere to start.

Ok, here are 10 more. See if you can get them.
1. Hinky-Pinky: A professional fisherman.
2. Hinkaty-Pinkaty: A southwestern gas station.
3. Hink-Pink: A strike-out in the Alps (Tough clue, but it's the best I could do)
4. Hinky-Pinky: Untrue words. OR Untrue text.
5. Hink-Pink: Homosexual Ale.
6. Hink-Pink: Astronomical satellite cuddling.
7. Hinky-Pinky: Document shennanigans. OR A literature escapade. (Another tough clue. Focus on the second half to get the first)
8. Hinky-Pinky: A magical mixture for soft hands.
9. Hink-Pink: Herbal anger.
10. Hinky-Pinky: Uninteresting points in basketball. (that was bad, but I was pressed for time.)

Have fun.
