Easier (PfP #27a)

■ · By Conflux · Published 2021-12-22T02:54:01.682Z

Constructor's Note
If you’re looking for a challenge, I recommend solving this puzzle Downs-only, which is exactly what it sounds like–and surprisingly fun. So if that sounds intriguing, ignore the Across clues and go for it! You can always look at them if you get stuck. Regardless, enjoy!
This was the "easier" crossword in Issue #27 of Puzzles for Progress, which I released on January 1, 2021.
I make puzzles (of all different kinds, not just crosswords!) at https://puzzlesforprogress.net. If you liked this puzzle, you might like those!

    Nice one! FYI solvers that want to can go to "Account" and then enable the checkbox next to "Start puzzles in downs-only mode". Any new puzzles they start will initially have the across clues hidden. If they manage to solve them that way they get a 👇 emoji instead of a 🤓
