Comments from Today’s Crossword Constructor

Jay: I'm really happy to be making my USA Today debut with this puzzle! As someone who has worked for many years in children's media, I always make a point to sneak a few clues about kids' stuff into every puzzle I create (I like to imagine that there is, somewhere, a parent working through the puzzle who gets a bit stuck and calls out to their little one for some help). So consider me very pleased to have gotten clues about Miss Piggy (23-A) and Paddington Bear (25-D) into the puzzle, as they're both fictional talking mammals who are near and dear to my heart. My thanks and gratitude to the USAT team for giving me this opportunity to put together and share something fun with the world.  Good luck solving, everyone!

Crossword Puzzle Theme Synopsis

The first words of the theme answers are, in order, PEA, BE, and JAY, or PB&J.

This is a clever theme, using words to spell out the initials of the classic sandwich, PB&J. I did not guess the theme mechanism from the title, but once I uncovered PEA SHOOTER, there was a nice, "Aha!" moment. Congratulations to Jay Silverman on a USA TODAY debut! Thank you, Jay, for this enjoyable puzzle.
