The answers to today’s threads, game #553, is …
- THIRTEEN
- PARTY
- RABBI
- Lchaim
- Torah
- SYNAGOGUE
- Spanggram: Barmitzvah
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
You didn’t have to be Jewish to run through today’s threads, but it may have helped – especially when it came to discovering Lchaim.
Either way, Barmitzvah is so ingrained in popular culture that after seeing the excitement it was clear what we were looking for, and unlike yesterday with Criss-Cross Spangram and twisting words, today’s search was an easy trip.
That said, I left the synagogue until last, and it took a while to stare at letters by ear to fall.

- BLANKET
