Door 9

Bone (E N)

Slow cooker

You find a journal page in the bushes. Could this be from the thief?

It's tedious work, making sure I collect the cand from all these houses. To pass the time I played a little word game.

I started with the word full. At each of the nex 5 houses, I changed a single letter and found a new word. Fnally I changed 1 more letter and ended up with moon. To remembed what words I came up with along the way. I left a green note at each doorstep.

What do the bones the thiefs path spell?

Gross growth (MOLD)

Not very spicy not hot or medium but (MILD)

Joy, sadness or envy a kind of ring that changes colour when you wear it (MOOD)

To stuff with stuff to make a hole not a hole anymore (FILL)

Make wheat into flour a building often powered by water or wind (MILL)
