I’m up in the middle of the night and just watched Dinner:Impossible with her “boyfriend” NYT Crossword editor Will Shortz. Every dish had to be a puzzle. I’m a crossworder, amateur, years ago the Times by Thursday had me beat.
I used to copy my local paper and the NYTimes crossword every Friday afternoon and after work our team would go at them and have a beer. Interesting that other teams always visited us on Fridays after 5:00! And they never shared.
It was enjoyable, though, and won’t take away from Mom’s other “boyfriend” Charlie Rose. Sorry, Charlie. Haha. Mom is gone now but I still think of her from time to time and prefer to remember the good things.
I’m wide awake at 4 a.m. and have a lot to do tomorrow. At least now I have a shade by my desk so can sit here in the morning and do some work. Cheers, Dee
