The answers to today's Strands, game #361, are FOOT BIRD BREAK SPENDER CHEESE LEAGUES PICTURE SPANGRAM: BIG STUFF My rating: Moderate My score: 1 hint

I had a Connections-like experience of not exactly knowing what I was looking for with todays puzzle. The answer only came into focus after I got SPENDER and, of course, Shirley Basseys classic Hey Big Spender came to mind.

My favorite of all the BIG STUFF is CHEESE and not just because cheese is
one of humanitys greatest culinary creations. Big Cheese is also a lovely way to describe a boss. Its disarming and charming, but also complimentary (youre not just a cheese, youre a big cheese). Had this been an actual job title I may have been more ambitious during my career being a manager always sounded like hard work and dull, being a big cheese sounds fun and aspirational and maybe you could get there just by being fabulously cheesy rather than
stomping on all the little cheese on your way to the top.

Anyway, I digress apologies. A lovely puzzle, big thanks to the big cheeses
at the big Strands office for making it happen.
