Bummer! You need to set the 'href' attribute of the second <a> element to 'pies.html', Despite declaring the attr.

I have mentioned the <a> tag with the pies.html href, but still getting the error.

index.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>
</html>

Hi there! This Bummer message is a little odd, I know. The problem here is the placement of your links. You have the links surrounding the entire list item element. But the links should be inside the the <li>. In fact, a list item is the only element allowed to be a direct descendant of unordered list. You can find the documentation here.

Hope this helps, but let me know if you're still stuck! :sparkles:
