Ask Marilyn: Where Does Marilyn Find Those Goofy Word Teaser Words?

Jordan Holtz of Cleveland, Ohio, writes:

Marilyn: I'm writing regarding the Word Teaser "grummet." (November 18, 2012) My dictionary says that "grummet" is just an alternate spelling of "grommet." Who is correct, you or my dictionary?

Marilyn responds:

All of our Wordteaser words appear in Webster's Third New International Dictionary (unabridged).
