In case you missed Monday’s NYT Mini Crossword puzzle, you can find the answers here:
The NYT Mini is a smaller, quicker, more digestible, bite-sized version of the larger and more challenging NYT Crossword, and unlike its larger sibling, it’s free-to-play without a subscription to The New York Times. You can play it on the web or the app, though you’ll need the app to tackle the archive.
Spoilers ahead!

Today’s Mini was a bit of a mixed bag. Some I got right away like BOARS and BCCS and GRUB. Others were trickier, like OATLY and CUTUP. I also got distracted in the middle of this and that really set me back. I took 2:13 on today’s crossword.
