Kwirky Krossword #1

This is the first installment of something I shall call "Kwirky Krosswords". This is meant to be subjective and hard so don't worry if you can't do it. The answers will be riddled throughout my next blog posts so stay tuned.

ACROSS:

1. Brian Thompson x Trader Joe’s if Brian did not get shot. Think seasonings.

2. A carb that is underrated-ly good with #7 down.

3. What you could say in response to the second sentence of this blog post.

4. Something sharp that you shouldn’t buy at the dollar store.

5. Writer of song “Supernova” who somehow gets way more credit for a small role in The Fault in Our Stars.

6. What really makes the world go ‘round. Also a TV show that I admittedly have never seen.

DOWN:

7. Hands down the best item at Costco.


8. The most versatile fruit.


9.  The most versatile vegetable.


10. This can be used as a substitute for corn starch with tofu, also a lyric in some rap song that goes like “XXX XXX I got XXX XXX." 


11. Another substitute for corn starch with tofu.

My Latest Worry*

When I moved into my own apartment, one of the things I was most excited about was being able to host whoever I wanted, whenever I wanted. For the first time, I was also excited about decorating my place of living and making it feel like a true humble abode, to be enjoyed by all the new friends I'd make and by me, myself & I.

You know when you're too scared by the answer to something that you don't want to even look up the question? That's me with fruit flies right now. I don't want to know if they spread disease, how they lay their eggs, where they came from, or really anything (except for HOW to get rid of them, that I have researched for obvious reason...
