Today’s NYT Strands hints and answers
Looking for Saturday’s Strands hints, spangram and answers? You can find them here:
Another lazy Sunday is ahead of us, dearest Strandistas. What will you do with your time? Perhaps you’ll go on a lovely springtime stroll. Or kick back with one of the many new shows and movies out this weekend for your viewing pleasure. But one thing is certain: It’s a good day for puzzle-solving. Let’s solve today’s Strands!
Strands is the newest game in the New York Times’ stable of puzzle games. It’s a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day we’re given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board. One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the day’s theme.
Spoilers ahead.

Today’s Strands Breakdown
Lots of words to uncover in today’s Strands, and only a couple long ones. I actually had a really tough time getting this one started. I kept finding words that weren’t part of the theme. After finally knocking out a few of the shorter ones, I was able to cut the grid in half with the spangram, GETALONG, and then things started to get easier. HARMONIZE was actually not the toughest word. I think the layout of words made most of these tough, like the backwards AGREE or the jagged CONNECT. Whatever the case, my brain was not with me on today’s Strands but I finally got it done.
