Challenge: Learn Basic CSS by Building a Cafe Menu - Step 37

Please Tell us what’s happening in your own words.

Learning to describe problems is hard, but it is an important part of learning how to code.

Also, the more you say, the more we can help!

This is what I have and I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong:
.item p {
display: inline-block;
}

For this step:
The p elements are nested in an article element with the class attribute of item. You can style all the p elements nested anywhere in elements with a class named item like this:

.item p { }

Using the above selector, add a display property with value inline-block so the p elements behave more like inline elements.

Your issue is here. You never close the .menu class style before you do your style for .item p
