I have returned from my travels and I’m oh-so-ready to be home. I love travel but there’s something so nice about getting back to your own space, to your own workspace, and of course to the people (and puppies) you left behind. Getting back to the daily grind? Chores? Mess? Less great. In any case, we have a Mini Crossword to solve, so let’s solve it!

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.

I enjoyed the palindromes in today’s Mini. NUN and MADAM. It would have been fun to have a couple more. I got NUN right away, but was stumped until I got down to 8-Across and HUGO. Then I moved to down clues and got MOM, our third palindrome (either way you look at it). I still didn’t have enough words to fill in the blanks, but I went back and realized NAM fit well, and then MADAM became obvious. Once I had these, UTAH, ATOP, NODUH, HEM and PAGE all revealed themselves. This took me 1:35.
