THURSDAY PUZZLE — I’m hungry. A snack would go down really well right now. Are you hungry, too?
Rich Proulx and Simeon Seigel have kindly set out a buffet for us, but we will have to figure out what to do with it. You’re probably thinking, “Duh, Deb; we’re supposed to eat it,” and of course, you would be right. Sure, we can snack away, but here’s the question we need to ask ourselves: Are we really getting the most out of this buffet?
There must be a way, elegantly or inelegantly, to maximize our snack intake. Just don’t listen to Mr. Proulx or Mr. Seigel, or you might be ridiculed for your table manners.

Two things convinced me that there was more going on in today’s puzzle than I had originally thought.
