They're slightly wasteful *rummage in brain for what American's call them* corn cob holders when hands just won't do, and when you can't be bothered trying to spear them onto those little cob holder spikes. To prevent retaliatory action, best suited for a dining environment with plenty of elbow room. |

Does what is makes look good on PYT's? Yes, it does. They're slightly wasteful *rummage in brain for what American's call them* corn cob holders when hands just won't do, and when you can't be bothered trying to spear them onto those little cob holder spikes. To prevent retaliatory action, best suited for a dining environment with plenty of elbow room. It can be used in this manner, it also has the advantage in improving the accuracy of the cob's trajectory when aiming towards a wastebasket. Don't you mean ravel? As in Bolero? |

Don't you mean ravel? Do you mean sweeping crumbling pavement? http://www.roadscience.net/services/distress-guide/raveling |

Don't you mean ravel? He might be talking about Ravel for lawyers and judges. ![]() |

Don't you mean ravel? Hm. That does seems more likely than the APL operator. |

yarn spindle Have to pass on the yarn spindle, too... Two good hints so far - combine (..the obvious definition we're playfully avoiding of..) ravelling and Pretty Young Things. |

Spaghetti winders? For more controlled serving *examine tool closely* would probably work quite well with tagliatelle too I suspect. ![]() oh...and did we say we like humans too? Well we do :) |

Spaghetti tossers then and portion control/equalising serving device: (instructions) insert diagonally; twist and lock; lift and plonk |

@annie, didn't know you looked good in spaghetti?! Q:Does what it makes look good on PYT's? A:Yes, it does. ![]() |

Spaghetti winder?.. that would work! It looks like it can hold a meatball or two, and (like the cob holder), will improve your aim toward the plate.. or a PYT. I live near a 15,000 student college campus, and I, being an old fart, see a crying need for someone to start flinging meatballs at some of these PYTs, esp. between midnight and 3am. on weekends. But I digress. |
