Yikes. New printer setup usually leads to an adult beverage chaser in our house.
I prefer my kale with a silent K.

On the beach very quickly after completing the grid, which was very tricky in places. G&T, please!
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:

Ashore4us! Slow arriving to the bar, but, thankfully, Cynthia nailed it! I'll have a London Pride this evening with some Cotswolds Cheese.

Ashore. An easy one, indeed! I think I’m gonna wander a bit further inland and take a nap under one of those palm trees (as long as I don’t see any coconuts on ‘em).

What a refreshing swim to shore for a change! I’ll take the finest boxed wine at the bar, pool boy.

Ashore! 🏖️ I had serious problems completing the center left and lower left ninths of the grid. I was able to suss out the meta and then used it to finally complete the lower left corner. 😅

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who had trouble with the grid. Lower left hand corner especially.
