Caroline, The parentheses change the interpretation for the print statement. If you put it without the parentheses, it will work fine. print "Mashed ",veg," on the ceiling."
Also, another note: the spaces at end of the first string and the start of the third string aren't necessary. When you use multiple parameters, print will automatically put a space between them.
