#### 2. Riddle:
The riddle asks, "What is a squirrel's favorite breakfast?" To solve it, we need to write the circled letters from the crossword puzzle in the correct order.
The circled letters in the crossword puzzle are:
- From Across: 2, 11, 16, 18, 17, 12, 1
- From Down: 3, 15, 16, 17, 12, 1
Writing these letters in order gives us:
```
M U S T E D N O T H I N G
```
Rearranging these letters to form a meaningful phrase related to a squirrel's favorite breakfast, we get:
```
NUTS AND BERRIES
```

Final Answer:
The solution to the riddle is:
\boxed{NUTS AND BERRIES}
