NYT Spelling Bee 5-25-21 final

I must make a correction. Yesterday I said that today’s post by @ccaallaahh would be the final in the cushion series. That was inaccurate. There will be a part 4. I’m happy about issuing this statement because I get to enjoy more of what she writes, and I get another week off to figure out which project to write about next.

Now, there was a chance at a new project today. Or at least there had appeared to be.

Sewing table with motorized storage for sewing machine.

But it would have been an awesome thing that would have been fun to restore, but it would have meant years of enjoyment having restored something that would serve as a recreational setup just for Calah. But now I know that such a thing exists.

Yesterday I missed AIOLI (always, always, always!), ATILT, CATTAIL, COATTAIL, COITAL, COPILOT, IOTA, LILAC, LILT, LOLLIPOP, OCOCTILLO, OCTOPI,

Meatier Misses

OCCIPITAL: Anatomy Relating to or situated in the back of the head. Calah’s going to laugh at me that I missed this one. I don’t know how many times she’s used that word in preparation for school, but it’s been a lot.
CAPICOLA: A pork cold cut that looks like this:

From A Taste of Artisan

AKA gabagool.

PICCATA: Cooked in a sauce of lemon, parsley and butter. I’ve missed this before and probably will again.

Today’s summary

Letters: TACHIRU
Final score: 49 words for 231 points.
Genius minimum: 167 points. What did I need for Queen Bee?????
First word: CRITIC.
Pangram: HAIRCUT.

About raabidfun

I'm a guy living the #raabidfun lifestyle. I figured I would create a blog about crossword puzzles I do. The idea is to do the NYT crossword and the WSJ crossword daily as much as I can. That includes when I don't finish and have clearly failed. They can be difficult. Also I am not an attorney, and any legal analysis in this blog reflects my interpretation, which means it can be flawed and should not be relied upon for use in legal matters (especially against me).
