The seed for this puzzle was inspired by a dog I know named Chewy who decided to stick his nose in my purse looking for treats even though I said I didn’t have any. Chewy’s owner responded with the seed entry to the puzzle, which made me laugh. Hope you enjoy!

Totally unrelated to this puzzle, but it’s pretty delightful how deeply people in my neighborhood get into spooky season decorations. Hope you’re enjoying your October and that you enjoy this puzzle!

I made yesterday’s New York Times puzzle! It’s been nearly two years since my last time, and as I put it in my constructor’s note for Wordplay, I consider it harder to get a puzzle published in NYT than it is to get into Harvard nowadays. Hopefully it won’t be another two years before the next time, but I have no accepted puzzles in the hopper there, so it wouldn’t shock me if it is. Anyway, I hope you liked yesterday’s easy puzzle; now here’s something harder!

Here’s a little nostalgia for you — one of those moments when you realize “THAT was 20 years ago?!”

Those of you who recall where I was about six weeks ago may have an easier time with the seed entry.
