Scamp with fruitcake, and something else to eat (6,3)
I believe the answer is:
monkey nut
'something else to eat' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'scamp with fruitcake' is the wordplay.
'scamp' becomes 'monkey' ('monkey' can be a synonym of 'scamp').
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'fruitcake' becomes 'nut' (I've seen this before).
'monkey'+'nut'='MONKEY NUT'
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for monkey nut that I've seen before include "source of oil" , "seed" , "It could be in the bag" , "goober" , "Not my nuke (anag.)" .)
