OK. I think I'm ashore with y'all. Jane tells me I have it but I'm not entirely convinced.
Maybe this level of conviction means I'm having a lite beer...
I prefer my kale with a silent K.

On shore! Took longer than it should have for me to see it, but admittedly that's the case more often than not.

Ashore.

Kinda easy but not very strong feeling.

So I'll have a shandy. Which is kinda easy but not very strong feeling.
I guess I should change my signature, and start promoting this meta: Hungry Little Creature. I was going to sent it to people for testing but I dropped the ball on it.

On shore, but with some doubt because of one thing I see.

Thought it might be a bad omen when I saw this today

But I made it ashore 🙂🥂🏝️
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.

(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Ashore, 2 pisco sours (but if my wife is late I'll end up drinking both). Well done page 1 solvers, this one was more difficult and challenging than the past 3 or 4 metas.

Ashore4us! Tough but fun in the end. The grid was a real chore. Time for a Smithwick's, or two!

We are always happy to get to know other muggles and help in any way! PM's are always welcome. The next best thing to winning a mug is helping a fellow muggle win a mug!

Ashore! Had some fresh rosemary so we’re enjoying Fontleroys this evening. Cheers, all!

Ashore. I was lost until an idea hit me like a brick. I'm still not 100% but it's as close as I'm gonna get.

Dirty martini for me, please!

Ashore! Just sailed out of Bermuda today on the mSC Meraviglia so I’m literally hanging with Isaac. Getting ready to play progressive trivia. There is nowhere to print anything on the ship so had to do the puzzle on my phone.
