Before simply giving you the answer...... You should be receiving an error that states "make sure you are using the correct flex-grow property" (that is what I received when testing your code in the challenge). This error is a big hint and I hope it helps you figure it out. If not, try watching the video one more time while you keep that error in mind and I'm sure you can get it.

Haha, no worries Evan. In my short experience learning CSS with Treehouse I've already noticed it's often the simplest answer that can be the most elusive. Glad I could help!
