CARTOON ANSWER:

SHE WAS SHOPPING FOR JUST THE RIGHT KNIFE AND WAS KEEPING A —

PAOKOOHULSTR = SHARP LOOKOUT

Good Tuesday morning everyone!  The clue words were not a problem today as each one came instantly.  Moving along to the cartoon, we find ourselves inside “Julienne’s Cutlery” where a customer is searching for just the right cutting implement.  After reading the dialogue and sentence, SHARP came to mind for the 5-letter word and I struggled to come up with the second word.  Writing out the letters, I noticed KOO grouped together which made me think of LOOKOUT for the finish.  I thought the name of the shop was brilliant but the customer really took my eye as she seemed rather nefarious.  I hope she has good intentions for the knife she picked out!!!  Have a terrific Tuesday and I’ll see you tomorrow.  🙂
