Mnemonic


[li-] Link is in the [3] basement of the [-(o)u] bakery where he is working with the 攵 foreman to make a cake that looks like a 人 person. He uses pieces of 糸 silk to form 綹 tufts of hair that he puts on top of the 人 person cake. Starving and low on "hearts", he takes a bite with his 口 mouth the artificial 綹 tufts, only to remember that they aren't edible at all. He then snacks on a croissant instead as he continues to make 綹 tufts of fake 糸 silk hair in the basement. He also puts 綹 tufts of his golden hair on the cake, too.
