Olympiad: kitchen chemistry puzzles ★★★, sentence 3
Watch out for big talk: when Nan says "I've told you a million times, no foil in the microwave" she means many times, and when someone calls a pancake-thin sponge "a bit flat" they are playing it down.
Who acts: you, Nan, someone, muffins · What happens: watch out, say, tell, mean, call, play down · To what, where: you, thin sponge, sponge · Speech: someone speaks here
