About 24 years ago, I defended my PhD dissertation related to myosin and ACTIN. What a surprise to see this in a NYT puzzle. A nice flashback to a different era. And even further back in time: how about THEMUNCHIES while playing ATARI!

How? Just…how? Sooooo impressive! Absolutely loved it. What a work of art. And I learned a new word today too.

Delightful puzzle. Rebus was IMHO a charming addition.

I love Katie’s puzzles! This one was very fun. Brought many smiles to my face, not only for the clever misdirects but also for the memories of my kids when they were young and into Pokemon and pool noodle battles. I particularly like the combo of AREWECOOL, ITLLBEFINE, and SWEARONIT. Thanks, Katie—I needed that.

An absolutely delightful puzzle! Puns and a crossword in one go? Very fun.

This one was delightful. A return to that feeling of both brain stretch and shaking my head at the cleverness of the clues. Favorite puzzle in months. Thank you, Katie!

Wow one of my favorites! Very happy to see a Katie Hoody puzzle, and this was a delightful solve.

I liked it, the clue for TOONIE was a favorite, but this is a Wednesday puzzle.

Now that’s a Friday puzzle! A real challenge, had to put it down and pick it back up several times. And I feel I must try this SHOWERBEER business…

Was very intimidated by the grid when I opened it but ended up flying through from the bottom up. Loved the spanners. Lovely puzzle!

@The X-Phile my thoughts exactly. What a gem of a tough solve.

@Suzy me too. My time today was significantly less than yesterday! Enjoyed both puzzles, though.

@MmmmHmm “gas” is slang the kids are using these days to mean “awesome”, or similar. I had to screen shot it to send to them to let them know it’s era is over now that it has made it to the puzzle lol

Fast Wednesday but I did love the theme and the grid art. Clever idea!

@Cool Papa Bell I tried ROUTE. More common use for R on envelopes in my experience!
