Here is my code:

Maybe a fresh pair of eyes will help?
Hi benjam,
If you're going to use the object literal syntax with hyphenated keys,
you need to put the properties in quotes, too.
$(this).css({ 'font-weight': 'bold', 'font-size': 'larger' });
As an alternative, you could camelCase the properties:
$(this).css({ fontWeight: 'bold', fontSize: 'larger' });
