Searching For Words

Most days I sit down for a mid-afternoon snack, a cup of coffee, and a crossword puzzle. Last Christmas Hubby Tony gave me some New York Times puzzle compilations (Tuesday-Easy and Wednesday-Medium), but I've just about gone through them. I will add replacements to this year's Christmas list.

Without a crossword puzzle to complete, I've been working my way through a book of Word Searches I received as a white elephant prize a while back. The book was published by TV Guide Magazine in 2015, but the puzzles reference material ranges from the 1960s up to the publication date. So far, this has been one of my favorites:

  3. M*A*S*H was a great show. I liked Hart to Hart. Stefanie Powers was a fine looking lady. She played April Dancer in "The Girl from U.N.C.L.E."

  4. I forgot about Lou Grant. Was it a Mary Tyler Moore spinoff? MASH was one of my favorite shows when young for a long time. Barney Miller too.
