The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).
Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!
I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.
You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.

One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.
Have fun with today’s Cryptogram and have a MARVELOUS Monday.
I’m an addict. I admit that willingly.

I prefer Godiva. Do you need my address?
Ha. The author surprised me.
I’m probably the “nutty” one
Where’s the mixed with peanut butter option??
That reminds me…. Back in the 80’s we had an exchange student from Germany for the summer. Among the gifts she brought was a few jars of Nutella (her favorite chocolate-tasting treat, which was not in our US stores yet). My daughter’s favorite was peanut butter (which our visitor had never tried) and when they mixed the two, the girls were both In heaven loving their new treat.
Plain or peanut?

Send a sampler. I’ll decide later.
You win the thread.
