        Try mondays. After a number of mondays you will get the hang of it. They are all archived although I think u need a nyt subscription
        Today’s Sunday wasn’t so hard. The circled ones where not that tricky

          Yes. Mondays are the easiest. The NYT Crossword used to b published in the Chicago Sun Times - that's where we did them at work. I have a NYT digital subscription just for the crosswords.

          You have to develop a devious mind for some of the clues later in the week.

          From yesterday.

          EG: "Music Stand" - CDRACK
          "Development area" - UTERUS
          "Home in the country" USEMBASSY

          Sunday isn't usually too devious or hard, just big.

          "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            @bachophile said in The NYT Crossword:

            Today’s Sunday wasn’t so hard.

            "Queen's Realm"

            Really??? LOL

              21 day streak? I don’t think I’ve ever got a Saturday.
