Puzzle Notes

Hi all,

At times like these, joyful moments of escape are often essential in keeping up our spirits and in getting us from one day to the next.  To that end, we're beyond happy to send along this super joyful cryptic from Matthew Stock, whose kindness, warmth, and good humor radiate from each clue.  We hope it brings you joy and indeed serves as a respite from the past few days.

We'll see you in a few weeks for our next cryptic.  In the meantime, take care of yourselves and take care of each other!
