As I understand it, if you're a patron via Patreon, you'll have gotten an email from Jeffrey with the link to this puzzle.

It's a good one. Not hard -- like a Week 1.5 or Week 2 -- and fun.

I haven't tackled the meta yet but the grid is ab-so-lute-lee deeelightful. That was an absolute joy to fill in.

Also, if you're like me and use the .PUZ, the meta prompt is "the five-letter grid entry that epitomizes the theme". I did not see this in the body of the email I received....

Fun meta, but I expect Jangler’s puzzles to be more challenging. He may be setting us up for the next meta.

Solved. It was clever.

We've been thinking that for 5 puzzles now....don't tempt fate by speaking it. :lol:

For those who don't subscribe - Jeffrey publishes two puzzles a month, one meta, one variety at a very (in my mind) reasonable Patreon fee. If you have room for one more (meta), I'd suggest giving Jeffrey's Jottings a try: https://www.patreon.com/jeffreysjottings
