Theme: Initial 3-letter words of phrases normally spelled _AY are spelled _EY but pronounced the same.
Good Ones:Luminous Spanish king REYOFLIGHT
Diary closer CLASP
Bee's charge? OPIE [Aunt Bee, not Bea]
Teens conflict, briefly WWI [note no apostrophe]
Up in the air HIGH
One who might get caught off base AWOL
Works on stage DRAMAS [noun, not verb]
BTW:Why is POTPIE (and other foods I like) called "comfort food"? I should think all tasty food is comforting --- except for those who eat only to stay alive and so disparage food the rest of us appreciate.
