CARTOON ANSWER:

LEBEOLWAD = “ABODE” WELL

Happy December 1st everyone!  Great clue word choices this morning with ABATE taking just an extra second.  With all of the clue words solved, it was on to the main event.  I was surprised to see that Jeff had drawn another real estate/Modern Family themed cartoon.  He must be in the market for some investment property or just really enjoy the show.  I first tried my hand at solving it without looking at the letters and all I came up with was THEM for the four letter word.  Looking at my letters, there was no T so I had to start over.  There were quite a few L’s and I found WELL easily and ABODE came next to complete the pun and put a cap on another great puzzle.  I would never have guessed that answer!  Take care and I’ll see you tomorrow.  😀
