After starters of tapas, very delightful private meal on lap? (2,6)
I believe the answer is:
tv dinner
'meal on lap?' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both things that one consumes for nourishment as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'after starters of tapas very delightful private' is the wordplay.
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'starters of' suggests taking the first letters.
'private' becomes 'inner' (as in one's private or inner thoughts).
The first letters of 'tapas very delightful' is 'tvd'.
'tvd'+'inner' is 'TV DINNER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for tv dinner that I've seen is " Meal eaten in front of the box".)
