5A Sunday Morning treat--Every Morning!  Sep 16, 2011
By NyiNya "NyiNya"
The best part of Sunday mornings is sitting with coffee and the NY Times Sunday puzzle. But why not live it up and take on the challenge any old time? Go crazy, solve a Sunday puzzle on Wednesday. Be an outlaw!

This particular edition is good for several reasons:

Many NYTimes Sunday collections date back 30 years...the references are stale and tired. This is pretty current.

The print is nice and big and the grids decently sized. Often Sunday puzzle collects have print that's tiny and minuscule grids. This allows one full page for clues and one full (opposing) page for the puzzle.

The variety is excellent. Themes are not repeated and are fresh, interesting and fun. No endless "finish the quotation" cop outs.

I was torn between keeping the Sunday puzzle special to Sunday or making it just another every day thing...but it's nice to have the option. When you feel like it, you can get up extra early, sit outside, watch the day start and relax a bit before hitting the grindstone. Okay, in my case, it's just a grindpebble, and I don't so much "hit" it as flail lightly in its direction, but even so...

And on sleepless nights when even reading Henry James can't knock the daylights out of you, one of these puzzles is the perfect sleep inducer. I defy anyone to get beyond five up and down answers before feeling those eyelids start to droop, the hand holding the pen begins to waver, and you find yourself drifting lightly, deliciously off to sleep.
