from Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword · host MP

Jean found today's crossword to be a piece o'cake, while Mike found it more of a torture, er, torte, as he wandered down various dead-end alleys (1A, Evidence of a recent scrape, SCAB (not SCAR); 6D, Go here and there, ROVE (not ROAM); 17A, Many a graduate of 37-across; Abbr., ENGR, not MNGR; etc., etc.). Both Jean and Mike enjoyed the delicious irony that 9A, Expensive Super Bowl purchases, TVADS, was kitty-corner to 64A, Rival of Hydrox cookies, OREOS  (and since OREOS were involved, the irony had to be delicious). And finally, Mike was delighted to see yet another reminder that Loki will be out in a few weeks, 53D, God who wields the hammer Mjölnir, THOR. Finally, it was Triplet Tuesday™️, in which Jean displays her crossword-solving chops, with a 100% solve rate.
