Hello, Strand fans This morning was a pleasantly loaded puzzle The puzzles were not particularly difficult, but some of the answers were well hidden and I enjoyed the challenge

The moment I read "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" I thought it was a postal delivery problem, and I was right I quickly found the PACKAGE spelled downward along the right side, and just below that I found the BILL

The next one took longer because I was preoccupied with trying to make the "ENVELOPE" up there (I could get to the "ENVEL" but no further) It took even longer when I thought the stray "Z" in the lower left corner might have something to do with "zipcodes"

But then I realized it was MAGAZINE and normal service resumed This gave me a clear path to spell the POSTCARD backwards, and I followed suit, grabbing the meandering LETTER in the upper right corner

It was then that I got the spangram I was already trying to connect MAIL, but realized that was only half of the word, so I added SNAIL to the front to create SNAILMAIL, connecting the two sides of the board, and then I added SNAIL to the back of the board to create SNAILMAIL, connecting the two sides of the board to create SNAILMAIL

The last part took a long time For some reason I couldn't decipher the anagram "TIIEVN" But eventually I was able to decipher it: INVITE!!!
