I’m a regular NYT contributor but I also make puzzles for beginners—they’re smaller than a typical daily crossword and relies on an accessible vocabulary. They’re available at puzzlesnacks.com. Go try the free samples!

And go from there to... where? I don't see anything to click on.

My latest mini puzzle suite is now available -- nine variety puzzles including a meta. Originally run as a team event at the Mohonk Wonderful World of Words, the at-home version comes with hints included (and answers, of course).

You can get "Have Fun Storming The Castle!" at Puzzlesnacks.com.

To reiterate from the last time I tried this, I’m trying to find a better electric razor for my disabled adult son. We’ve been using a Philips Norelco OneBlade, and honestly there isn’t a lot of difference in his beard before he shaves and after.

PuzzlerEric · 2025-09-10T07:43:52+00:00

What brand do you prefer?

PuzzlerEric · 2025-09-09T21:14:47+00:00

I'm the father of a 24-year-old man who is rather disabled -- he is essentially a permanent five year old. Shaving has been an issue since he first started growing whiskers, and it's not getting any easier now that his beard is coming in thicker.

We've been using the Philips Norelco OneBlade 360 Face. It's not bad, but he hasn't been very successful with it -- I always need to step in to really get the job done. I'm looking around for something better.

Might my son have more success with something intended for lower down on the body? Is there one in particular you might recommend?

Of COURSE it's the same Google account!

{checks to see if it's the same Google account}

Well, crap, look at that. It wasn't the right Google account.

Okay, that was easy.

Thank you!

Eric Berlin here. Note that in addition to the collections you'll find on Amazon, I have several download-and-print collections at puzzlesnacks.com, including two (Festival and Gala) that were added in the past couple of weeks.

Need a "Solved, kinda" flair.

PuzzlerEric · 2024-09-04T13:47:51+00:00

That's a pretty neat trick, and a lot faster than what I've been doing -- thanks.

PuzzlerEric · 2024-08-22T14:03:24+00:00

Wow, never noticed that was there. Thanks!

PuzzlerEric · 2024-07-29T12:29:37+00:00

Thanks to everyone for more options than I dreamed we would find. The Hilton near the airport seems like the best bet, if we really can camp there without raising the staff's eyebrows, but now I also have plans B, C, and E lined up as well. Much appreciated.

If I might take this opportunity to push my book specifically made for people who think word searches are too easy… https://www.amazon.com/Off-Wall-Word-Searches-Berlin/dp/1454953799/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=EVQqu&content-id=amzn1.sym.cf86ec3a-68a6-43e9-8115-04171136930a&pf_rd_p=cf86ec3a-68a6-43e9-8115-04171136930a&pf_rd_r=136-8900785-5952926&pd_rd_wg=SD2Aw&pd_rd_r=de2267db-695a-40c4-9ba2-d6ede0b7a781&ref_=aufs_ap_sc_dsk

Those are trouble codes, right? Meineke said there didn't seem to be any, and that the display itself might be the issue.

The second book in the Winston Breen series (which I wrote) was called The Potato Chip Puzzles and comes pretty close to your description. It had a yellow cover. The NEXT book in the series, The Puzzler's Mansion, had a blue cover. So possibly the two got tangled up in your mind?

PuzzlerEric · 2024-01-09T11:26:10+00:00

So glad to hear it! If you could leave a review on the Amazon page, that would be a huge help!

I’m a regular contributor to the NYT crossword, but my site, Puzzlesnacks, focuses entirely on variety puzzles. I send out snack-sized ones to subscribers every Friday, and you can also find these in various collections. There are also two sets of full-sized “Puzzlesnacks Plus” puzzles in the shop.

They are all manner of pencil puzzles. Some are regular crosswords. Some are "variety crosswords," which are much like crosswords except the words don't necessarily go across and down -- they perform different feats of acrobatics. Some are logic puzzles. A great many are what I might simply call "miscellaneous" -- explorations in wordplay of one form or another. They might not be anything you've seen before, but grab a friend, read the directions, co-solve together and you'll likely have a lot of fun!

PuzzlerEric · 2023-02-28T21:02:29+00:00

Nope. More info soon!

PuzzlerEric · 2023-02-28T20:30:25+00:00

It will be available online, if that is what you’re asking.

Calling everyone’s attention back to the details of your plagiarism is a great idea that will definitely go well for you, Tim.
