help with Code Challenge please

I'm getting Bummer: "Don't forget to instantiate the dictionary with the contents of the plist!."

And I Don't know what to do more :(

This is my code:

import Foundation

// Add your code below

let plistPath = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("CrazyInformation", ofType: "plist"), let weatherDictionary = NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: plistPath)

I was struggling with this challenge for a bit also. This worked for me. Watched the video back and at about 4 minutes in I had realised the instance of NSDictionary containing the plistPath wasn't in the curly braces. Hope it helps.

import Foundation

if let plistPath = NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource("CrazyInformation", ofType: "plist") { let crazy = NSDictionary(contentsOfFile: plistPath) }
