Yes please, more bouquets...eh, puzzles :) Thank you :)
Now with great fame comes greater responsibility, so you better have those puzzles lined up ;-)
P.S: the word verification was 'gasist'!!??
Hmm.. I got 'em all like I previously mentioned. However, the solutions would be easier to read on the crossword itself, no?
Thank you for a great crossword puzzle, N! We want more! Please! I still didn't get 'cashew' even after Priya dropped another clue - whoever heard of words spelled backwards in a puzzle!!
Priya, the banner picture is really fab - love it!
Second that the banner is awesome! Almost takes you to the irani cafe mood. All thats is missing is a samosa and great company!
