"A puzzle for yous all..."

My first is in biscuit but never in cake
My second's in awesome but not in great
My third is in mother but not seen in dad
My fourth is in sunny but never in sad
My fifth is a vowel found in water not creek
My sixth is found only in one day of the week
My seventh's two of three that you learn when you're young
My eighth's not in song but it's there when it's sung
My ninth's in eleven and twelve, not thirteen
My tenth is in island and river, not stream
My eleventh's in precious and secret and paste
My twelfth is in phantom and spectre and haste
My whole stalks the night in a quiet dreamlike state
With no memories the next day of being out late

hhmmm, I thought it was a bit of a wierd question,
but surely the cutting machine can't cut the scraps in the same way.
I pictured those scraps be smushed up into new bars.

hhmm

heh, clever!

because you can get an extra two bars of soap from the 22 extra you made.

why 24
250/11 = 22.72 recurring

250+22=272

24 + 250 = 274
