    Shouldn’t 21a
    21AWord after coffee (I love to espresso myself)[-----]
    be "word after coffee"? Nice themes.

      Bar food... :)
      • boharr 3s · 5 months ago
        A bar trick!
        • I K Snamhcok 2s · 5 months ago
          Thought of KITKAT quickly, “but that’s not a bar food.” Then … “D’oh!” Good one, Mikey!
          • Darth 🤓21:28 · 5 months ago
            Aww...I should have gotten it sooner. Not tapas or dips! Lol
            • KayW 🤓11:26 · 5 months ago
              One of my very favorite bar foods!! EXCELLENT meta
              • whimsy 🤓15:03 · 5 months ago
                Duh! And I even passed some of the white chocolate version out last night! Great fun in spite of my tripping up on all the food clues and entries (I found Idaho potatoes, Swiss cheese and Pop Tartts! :) ) -- Thank you, Mikey!
                • Dow Jones 3s · 5 months ago
                  Another fun grid to fill. One of my favorite "bars".
                  • Abide 🤓10:44 · 5 months ago
                    Finally - I am dim and dum
                    • Laura M 🤓13:58 · 5 months ago
                      Oof. I had two incorrect submissions where I just guessed from the pattern, and where I also misinterpreted "bar" food. And then I gave up for several days, and only went back to read the nudges just now. Nice puzzle, and I second Abide's comment!
