Fun one, @DrTom!

Cat is freed. A purr-fect meta for today - thanks, Tom!

Happy Valentines Day, friends! Thanks Dr. Tom for a light-hearted little break in my day.

Well, my Valentine's Day present was LOTS better than candy:

That is definitely a record for one day for me. It is so funny because this one all came together in about an hour or so from "Hmm I wonder" to "Ok, last clue done". Sometimes you just gotta have heart...

Late solve, but fun! Cheers, DrTom and all you muggles!

I found Waldo(s)!!

Might be the only puzzle I solve! On vacation, and not only having trouble solving some of the metas since our long drawn-out arrival (but we did get away before our original flight was canceled!) but also with some features of crosshare and puz. So I'll be seeing you when and where I see you!

And the hits just keep on coming:

54 rjy
55 Deb W
56 tyrpmom
57 Jim23809
58 Aerion
59 Johnny Luau

This is on track to be my most solved!!! (and DARN I wished now I HAD hid a Waldo in the candy hearts!!!)

I'll bet you think I would not notice what you did there, but I did

If it is Cat Tails or Pussy WIllows that is allowable.

LOVE that pic!!!!

Nudges:

The title gives you the mechanism

This is one of the rare metas where you do not get only one letter from each theme answer

Lots of folks probably thought that "...go on" meant go on top of...it doesn't

If not on top of then what else could a heart going on mean?

Cat's out...no nudges needed. Thanks for another fun (and funny) meta DrTom!

The puzzle is currently sitting 5th in the list of number of solves, Not bad for one that came together so quickly.

Grade school and Valentine’s Day…I remember loving it and hating it. I am sure somewhere in a drawer in the family homestead there are a pile of undelivered Valentine’s Day cards with names of girls or boys long now grown up and married. Should you be bold enough to announce your fervent naïve affection and face the humiliation that comes with rejection? Dare you announce to your peers that you actually “love” the little blonde haired boy or girl?

That is the thought that came to me when I realized that (1) Valentine’s Day was coming (2) it was a MEOW day. So I whipped up the kitten that you saw last Wednesday. The solution was:
A bunch of you liked it and I like that you liked it, so I guess that is our Valentine to each other.

Thanks to all who solved. You get a week off from me as Darth has a fun MEOW tomorrow. Make sure you give it a try!
