Friday, September 11, 2026 — Robyn Weintraub Is Back, and We Are Better for It!

Considering that this is Robyn Weintraub's 37th Friday crossword(!),  she has certainly earned the sobriquet, the Queen of Fridays. We hope she wears her crown at a jaunty angle, in honor of the many jaunty clues in today's puzzle. We enjoyed the bait-and-switch of 6D, Sounds of fall?, THUDS; the spirited defiance implied in 13D, "Keep Commerce Human" website, ETSY; and the somewhat esoteric (at least from Mike's perspective), 23D, Fabric related to chambray, DENIM.TLDR; Another fine Robyn Weintraub puzzle, worth every one of the 5 squares, on the JAMCR scale, that we hereby bestow upon it.Show note imagery: Pretty much every 10th building in major Canadian cities, Tim Hortons (no apostrophe!)We love feedback!
