    Another smooth solve. I barely had a chance to look at the theme.

          Loved the theme! Helped me with one or two of them once I figured it out. Nice!

            Hope it gave you the right “aha” moment! I made sure there were plenty of theme entries squeezed in so there would still be more left to “cheat” on once you’ve figured out the theme
