It's SUIT, Not Suite!!

Twice this week I've read the phrase "That's not my strong suite" on two different websites. It made me cringe. And it made me scratch my head. The correct phrase, of course, is "not my strong SUIT" (soot) not suite (sweet) so they don't even sound similar. And I don't think they meant that they had a strong set of hotel rooms or furniture. What really, REALLY hurts was that in each case the websites belonged to writers.

I just would have expected better.
