Description
This was a terrific Tuesday crossword by Drew Schmenner, his seventh for the NYTimes since 2021. As expected, it ticked all the right boxes:
- a kind, gentle yet clever theme ✅
- a slew of intriguing yet accessible clues ✅
- absolutely no spelling mistakes ✅
- the presence of at least one reference to OREOs ✅
Since all the right boxes were ticked, we were not: rather, we were tickled — pink, to be precise. Check out today's episode for all the deets (as well as, of course, our first Triplet Tuesday segment of the month!).
Show note imagery: Our SWOTD (Slang Word Of The Day) really SLAPS ... because it is SLAPS! 🙄
