Hey Claudwin!

You'll want to have the li tags on the outside and the a tags on the inside like this

<li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>

You're linking the actual list names so the reference needs to be inside the <li> tabs and watch the spaces

<li><a href="cakes.html>Cakes</a></li> <li><a href="pies.html>Pies</a></li> <li><a href="candy.html">Candy</a></li>
