Puzzle 153 – “Shiny Things”
puz here / pdf here / solution here
We’ve got a theme this week, and some circled squares to boot. Keeping the notes short this time out, just as I’ve tried to keep most of the clues relatively short but gentle here.
Favorite clue: I will admit that I chuckled aloud to myself just a touch when I settled on 23-Across.
Happy solving, yall. Comments welcomed, as ever. Hope you enjoy.
Fun one! Easy breezy. I’m definitely now singing 55-Across – thanks for the earworm!
Was shooting for gentle on this one. Glad it felt that way!
Fun theme!
Thanks, pal. I was happy with it…
Perfect puzzle!
That’s very kind. Glad you enjoyed!
Thanks, this was fun! Agree that 23A is a chucklemaker. Also, I now have some kind of mashup earworm featuring 55A and 65A, so …. thank you? :D?
Throw 56D in the mix, and you’ll really have something…
fun! thanks!
As ever, glad you’re enjoying them.
