Born In the Ocean
Born in the ocean,
White as snow,
I’m hidden in water,
Where do I go?
What am I?
Salt. Salt is harvested from seawater, it’s white and it dissolves in water.
A Medication of Three Parts
I’m a medication with three parts. The first part is the surname of someone who has been a Mary and a Maria. The second part is a vital organ and the last is plentiful in the ocean.
What am I?
Andrews Liver Salts, an antacid. Julie Andrews played the role of Mary Poppins in the movie of the same name, and Maria in the Sound of Music. It’s tough to live without a liver and a taste of the ocean always includes a touch of salt.
The Start Of What You Might Conceive
I’m the start of whatever you might conceive.
Next I describe a Thanksgiving meal.
Last I transform to a state we all leave.
What am I?
begin, binge, being. Everything has a beginning, Thanksgiving dinner is known for being a meal of excessive consumption and the mortal state of being (or the state of a human being) is one which, for all our efforts to extend, will eventually end.
I Hide In A Dark Tunnel
I hide in a dark tunnel awaiting my time.
I can only be released by pulling back.
Once released, I may do unspeakable damage.
A bullet.
Slice My Head
You use a knife to slice my head and weep beside me when I’m dead.
An onion.
Five Letters But One Left When Two Removed
What word of five letters has only one left when two letters are removed?
Any 5-letter word with the word ‘one’ somewhere in it. Examples include shone, stone, alone, money, loner, phone or ornery. Note it doesn’t say there is only one letter left, but only ‘one’ left. Tricky tricky.
