SOUNDS DELICIOUS | By Matt Gaffney

The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a six-letter word.

Good luck with the grid and the meta.

Kudos to whoever got this site up and running again! On shore, but quite a simple meta. Is Gaffney on vacation?

LOL, I considered posting "on shore" this afternoon when I saw the post on the other thread that said we could post again...

Ashore, only p1 due to site problems apparently. Hope they’re now fixed. Nice puzzle; thank you Matt Gaffney.

Thought I was ashore, only to be swept back out to sea by a riptide. These numbers though😡

On shore on Friday but waiting for @Joe Ross to give the all clear to post. G & T me!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:

On shore. And I hope I'm still on the server, and I don't mean the cabana boy. But I'll raise a glass to both.

Hands up if you posted on Friday and then immediately deleted your post in a panic because you saw the message from Bob too late.

My hand is up.

And I'm on shore.

Back to the MGWCC which is... yikes!
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.
