This was a very fineΒ sophomore crossword by Anthony V. Grubb, appearing almost exactly one year after his NY Times debut (also a Monday). The theme was cute; the clues, at an apposite Monday level, included a few gems. For instance, 19D, Superfan, in slang, STAN (we're big STAN STANs π); 31D, Pink Nintendo character from Planet Popstar, KIRBY (we're also big KIRBY STANs π π); and the somewhat fishy 55A, Hook, line and sinker, for an angler: GEAR (π).
Show note imagery: Just in time for spring, a SPRIG of thyme π
