Please, someone help me out here i'm getting a 'bummer'. Can;t seem to know where i got it wrong with the challenge. The challenge says; Make the text inside each list item a link. The first item should link to cakes.html, the second to pies.html and the third to candy.html.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Lists and Links</title>
</head>
<body>
<ul>
<a href="cakes.html"><li>Cakes</li></a>
<a href="pies.html"><li>Pies</li></a>
<a href="candy.html"><li>Candy</li></a>
</ul>
</body>

Your <a> anchor tags should be embedded inside your <li> list tags, like so...
<ul>
<li><a href=cakes.html>Cakes</a></li>
<li><a href=pies.html>Pies</a></li>
<li><a href=candy.html>Candy</a></li>
</ul>
Hope this helps.
