I had to scan over my answers for too long to find my error: I was convinced a popular pop was cake, not COKE! Long live the cake pop! 🍰

I was nervous going in after not filling many initially but was able to keep chipping away as I filled in more and more with the crosses! Felt a sense of ESPRIT getting the long downs but finally had to EASE into googling for the NE corner. Happy to report I am not INDISARRAY after completion. Ps. Went to a SILENTDISCO in 2019 and it was one of the most fun parties I’ve been to! Emus take note 🕺

I’ve been solving for about 3 years and this was my first Saturday puzzle without looking anything up or going to the article for hints!!!! So proud of myself ☺️
