Hi Strands fans. Between this and yesterday's game, the NYT puzzle setters seem to have taken a break from subtle themes. Today's - "Baby talk" - is pretty self-explanatory, and it's hard to see what else it could be about.
So I comfortably managed to complete the game without using any clues, first finding MAMA spelt backwards from the middle to the top of the board, and YUCKY next to it. I then spelt out the spangram of FIRSTWORDS from top to bottom (the right way around, this time).
This neatly divided the grid in two, allowing me to complete the left-hand side with BOTTLE and MINE.
There were four answers hidden on the right-hand side and they all fell pretty quickly, starting with BYEBYE at the bottom. I then got MORE above it, and just had to unpick DADA and KITTY in the top right to complete the puzzle.
