Hi Brock,

In the first line, you're missing a closing curly braces after "a{ color:red;". This should work: p{ a{ color:red; } html.footer &{ color:purple; } }

(did you give your html tag a class?)

You also have one extra closed curly brace in your second line.

Happy Sass-ing!

Oh okay, just starting with sass not use to the syntax just yet. Thank you Peter.
