It’s Mardi Gras! Laissez les bons temps rouler! That has no bearing on this puzzle, but this one is kinda kooky. Happy Solving!

    Lovely! Is 5A incomplete or am I missing a parse?

      Thanks, nate! “Sauté” is doing double duty in this one. It works as part of the stirred act of frying, and as a direct definition of stir-fry. Not sure if that is up to snuff, but I do like its efficiency. 😊

        Ah I see, thanks!
