Hope you don't mind that I solved it on a Saturday...#2: CB Paul (cbpaul) on Jul 10, 2021 [SPOILER]
At first, I thought it was a bike helmet, which made the puzzle description kinda yikes! :) nice job
OK, but what's crunchy about Tuesday?#3: Andrew Schultz (blurglecruncheon) on Jul 11, 2021 [HINT] [SPOILER]
[Maybe that's a spoiler?]
"Taco Tuesday" usually indicates a tradition of eating Tacos or other Mexican food on Tuesday nights. Sometimes there is a sale, too.#4: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Jul 11, 2021
I was wondering if I got Bastille Day wrong and thinking, wait, no, Bastille day -is- the 14th.
But I know I've tried to wait til a specific date to post an image, then I forgot about it.
Oh, also: edge logic on the 8 knocks a lot out quickly.
My calendar says that Wednesday is National Macaroni and Cheese Day (who knew?!), so I was sort of expecting this to be that!#5: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jul 12, 2021
yum!#6: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jul 12, 2021
Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by gator.#7: Gator (gator) on Jul 12, 2021 [HINT]
The initial LL places 2 black cells.#8: Michael Eddy (meddy) on Jul 13, 2021
EL on R1 completely places the 8 clue. Lots of LL.
EL on R20 makes R20C23-30 dots. LL to finish.
Nice puzzle.
Valerie do you remember that Wednesday is Prince Spaghetti day? It was an old advertising slogan.#9: Bill Eisenmann (Bullet) on Jul 13, 2021 [SPOILER]
Eew, macaroni and cheese tacos!#10: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Jul 14, 2021 [SPOILER]
Bill: Hm. That actually sounds kind of good! Macaroni and cheese in a hard taco shell? It would need a salad to go with it, but that actually could be good!#11: Karen Scholl (karenttrouble) on Jul 15, 2021 [SPOILER]
Michael: Nope, I didn't know about Prince Spaghetti day.
In other news, today is supposedly national macaroni and cheese day, so my kids and I actually did have macaroni and cheese for dinner. It was vegan and made from scratch, and felt a little like celebrating a holiday from Somebody Else's Religion, but we liked it.
Which way did you make vegan mac? I'm a longtime vegan and make mine old school style with nutritional yeast and a roux.#12: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Jul 15, 2021 [SPOILER]
Karen - Here's my vegan macaroni and cheese recipe. I'm allergic to nutritional yeast, so it is yeast-free. For this particular batch, I used homemade pasta from an electronic pasta making machine, which was fun and yummy! I am not a vegan, but I definitely have some vegan tendencies.#13: Karen Scholl (karenttrouble) on Jul 16, 2021 [SPOILER]
