SECRET SANTA’S HELPERS
Puzzle by Patrick Blindauer, edited by Will Shortz
The Sunday New York Times Magazine arrives out east here with the Saturday paper in the driveway -- did the puzzle at breakfast. Neighbors brought themselves over with their elf, so I gave her a sea green crayon to do up what is labeled as:
“Bonus puzzle: When this crossword has been completed, try to find the word ELF hidden in the grid 20 times, word search-style -- horizontally, vertically and diagonally in any direction.”
How’d she do?
