“tea cake” is the nickname for verigible woods. why do you think he received that nickname, and what does it suggest about his character?it would be very much appreciated : )

Not enough information

Tea Cake’s original name, “Vegible Woods". The “woods”, in Tea Cake’s previous name symbolizes the nature and proves that Tea Cake once was a man that was satisfied with his current life style. Later on, Tea Cake renames himself as “Tea Cake”, which is ironic because back in that time period, a tea, which was consumed by the whites, was mostly produced by African Americans. Thus, the name “Tea Cake”, shows how people at that time period were absorbed into white men’s culture and how Tea Cake, as an example, failed to stand against the social hierarchy and even craved to be part of their society at the end of the novel.

this answer was editing it cause i couldn't delete!

the answer is subjective. i personally agree with the first answer for this question.

if one isn't strictly talking about objects then the correct answer would be 'my eyes' since according to this riddle i am asleep and in order to answer/open the door i need to open my eyes first of all.

however, if one is specifically looking for an object, then the first thing i would open would be the door

hope this !
