Thanks. I didn't know the coastline in the first one, but knew the last three. Then I looked up the score to last night's game.

Usually I'm so lost I don't even bother guessing.

I would never have gotten the rest of the puzzle but isn't it "pounded" as opposed to "crushed"

Having pounded rice to make mochi on one New Years Day this stuck with me

Yes, pounded is what I was leaning toward, but crushed worked as well.
