Time to play the NPR Sunday Pizzle! Find a compound word/ 2-word phrase using "Mo- Ho-"!!!

Over the last weekend, the Puzzle Master Will Shortz was attending Mystery Weekend at Mohonk Mountain House, a beautiful resort near New Paltz, New York. In honor of the mountain house, every answer today is a compound word or two-word phrase where the first word starts with MO and the second word starts with HO. So if I gave you the clue "What you might enjoy during a long weekend," you'd give me the answer MONDAY HOLIDAY.

 


 

1.   A prefab structure that you live in and which can be easily relocated.

    2.   The bank that has the lien on your house.

    3.   Historically Black college in Atlanta, Georgia.

    4.   An opening in the wall where a rodent might get in

    5.   A poisonous plant named for its resemblance to a religious person's headwear (also known as wolfsbane)

    6.   A dish of meat and vegetables, cooked in broth, named for the Asian country from which it comes

 




Answer Keys

    2.  Mortgage Holder

    3.  Morehouse

    4.  Mouse Hole

    5.  Monk’s Hood

    6.  Mongolian Hot pot
