Notes from me:
As I said, the ingredients list is confusing:
Remember to separate the eggs and beat the yolks and whites separately.

Reminds me of StelBel.
yeh, me too

Women on a guy’s mind. What’s so strange about that?
Is that robot in the background related to Bender?
Kinda racy for “53.
Looks like my cat scan results.

That looks like a cross between a pup and a bear cub.
In the beginning it’s a dog but it’s turning into a bear cub on the goose.
Which BTW is much more patient than the ferocious geese I’ve known.
That’s a duck.
Small puppy!
Whatever.
The length of their necks kinda overlaps, so the only way I can tell a short necked goose from a long necked duck is by the beaks.
I can’t see this one well enough… But yeah, it’s probably round enough to be a duck bill.
Obviously I’m no waterfowl expert.
Sigh….

I love Legos!
Mine are random pieces from flea markets and such, so I don’t have many people… And no female ones!
I’d say I want a girl/woman one like that, but I have to keep them all packed away anyway, so I won’t play with them.
Israeli Army I believe.
Aw, Mom! I was gonna come the third time you called me!
When I say you’re in time out, I mean now!
Wow, it’s the sub-Saharan baobabrocolli plain!
I don’t think I need to post a solution unless anybody asks.
Got ’em 🙂
humans
Are we sure about that?
I think the first lady looks beautiful.
Third one looks like the biker who runs down my road helmetless upon occasion. Once he hits forty.
About today’s Cleo …
Of course I can guess… But you can’t pry the answer from me with a… um…. with ….. YOU know….

The pun is obvious:
It’s a ravin’ bar.
A murder of crows. The lawyers approach the bar…
Boo! 😀
I think the hidden answer is the right one…
Otherwise: I hope they hit it.
Yours is the best i’ve seen.
It’s a rooster bar.
A rooster crows.
Geezer points if you recognise that little bit.
“Margaret! Fetch me my crowbar! I’m going hunting for nighthawks.”
Gosh I thought I was totally giving today’s pun away in my first post.
I didn’t realize nobody would get it or anybody would still be guessing!
So much for subtlety.
I guess I have to hit people over the head with a… one of those things…
Like Tigressy said hours later, and Liverlips hours after that….
That’s the easy answer; the one I didn’t want to give.
And that’s how you get an open bar anytime. Or bar open…
