The blog has been graced with another lovely puzzle from Sid! Reminder that you should be solving the puzzles on his site, Sid's Grids!

Also-- it's been a month! A month of fun puzzles and fabulous contributions. I've met so many people through this project-- keep an eye out for some collabs!! I'm super grateful y'all leaned into this wild idea with me <3 Can't wait for another eleven months!

Sid says: "I'm not sure why, but I hear (and say) the phrase at 8-Across way more than other combinations of words that could reasonably mean the same thing — so if it feels somewhat arbitrary to you, consider that two of us! (But trust me that it is, in fact, a thing.) Thanks to Malaika for hosting and editing!"
