Puzzle Notes
Dear friends:
Tonight we have a compact 8x8 by our own Chris Piuma called "A bear in a nightcap". It's cute and rather tricksy.
Chris says: "I hope you all enjoy this lil puzzle. And remember, if you are reading a book and come across a word or concept you don't understand, you're encouraged to look it up. Same thing goes for crosswords! Look things up, if it helps you enjoy or appreciate a crossword. I, for one, am more impressed by people who appreciate puzzles deeply than those who solve puzzles quickly. So have fun!"
Next week: Something a bit unusual awaits.
xoxo,
Brooke, Chris, Enrique & the expanded AVCX crew
