Themeless Saturday by Zhouqin C. Her wit and wisdom are everywhere. I was glad to see C. And while this puzzle certainly was a challenge, there were only a few clues that really had me scratching my head. But, in the long run, I persevered and got the win. Good morning! Got 'er done Thanx for playing. Nice one, C. I tried to brush away the acute accent above the O in reunion thinking it was a dust mote, but it got me TIAS.
The math to figure out an ARC is well beyond my capabilities. Yet another close, but no cigar. For the most part this very enjoyable puzzle came together nicely. I thought I was going to FIR in record time. Then I hit a brick wall in the SE corner and had to resort to red letters to fill the few remaining empty squares. All in all, a fun way to start the weekend. Took today. I had snow peas before snap peas, too. Although I know "Alda," I don't know him "as clued," as we like to say.

They are more fun when I've actually worked the puzzle. First, congratulations C. I FIW after taking a few wrong guesses on the foods I had zero knowledge of.
WAC didn't make sense because it was wrong. I've never used Twitter-X, and I thought maybe there was some type of tweet. I had the wrong type of dish. The rest filled in Saturday time-slowly. Who is Brenda Song? Who is Shawkat? Podcasts I watch? Ditto for the 'ships passing in the night' for NSA. Well, C. Gary- sounds like a money shakedown for your PAC.
