It's almost correct. But you only need one unordered list with list items in it that holds the anchor-tags.

Like this:

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

If you're having <ul> around every <li>-tag then you actually have three (3) unordered lists. Not only one, which is what you want this time.

Hope this helps.
