ForbesToday’s NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers For Sunday, June 15thBy Erik Kain

Technically, spring still has a few days to go, but when it comes to the weather, summer is already here. The solstice arrives this Friday, yet the sun is already intense and temperatures are nearing 90 degrees even in the mountains, so I’m already hoping monsoon season arrives earlier than usual. Still, the evenings are quite pleasant! With the heat outside, I’ll be staying indoors with the AC on and solving a puzzle or two. Let’s dive into today’s Mini Crossword!

The NYT Mini offers a more compact, quicker, and easily manageable alternative to the full NYT Crossword. Unlike the main puzzle, the Mini can be played for free without needing a subscription to The New York Times. You can access it via web browser or through the app, although the app is required if you want to play past editions.

Spoilers ahead! Here’s the first letter of each word.

Across

1A. Slow ___ (primate with big eyes) — starts with the first letter L

6A. Title character who says "I've often seen a cat without a grin ... but a grin without a cat!" — starts with the first letter A

7A. National mammal of the United States — starts with the first letter B

8A. Something to R.S.V.P. for — starts with the first letter E

9A. Word commonly mixed up with "fewer" — starts with the first letter L

Down

1D. Where care instructions are often found on a garment — starts with the first letter L

2D. Main ingredient in tapenade — starts with the first letter O

3D. Gets up — starts with the first letter R

4D. Array on a touchscreen — starts with the first letter I

5D. Email status — starts with the first letter S

Spoilers ahead! Here are all the answers.

Across

1A. Slow ___ (primate with big eyes) — LORIS

6A. Title character who says "I've often seen a cat without a grin ... but a grin without a cat!" — ALICE

7A. National mammal of the United States — BISON

8A. Something to R.S.V.P. for — EVENT

Down

1D. Where care instructions are often found on a garment — LABEL

2D. Main ingredient in tapenade — OLIVE

3D. Gets up — RISE

4D. Array on a touchscreen — ICONS

5D. Email status — SENT

Here are all the words on the grid:

This one was a little challenging. I know primates well but initially forgot about the slow LORIS and mistakenly filled in LEMUR, which actually worked with 1-Down but clearly didn’t fit with 2-Down, which was clearly OLIVE. Eventually, I managed to piece them all together after a minute and eighteen seconds.
