“These are the hints”
“I’ll save you the trouble of translation, this is what they are:
1. Go tickle the ivories (hidden in the piano)
2. A dime a dozen… more like a dozen dimes! (hidden in a coin of jars my parents have)
3. Count your chickens before they hatch (hidden in the carton of eggs)
4. Stick a fork in it (hidden in the silverware drawer)”
