Not a daisy and not 4D: Daffodil close-up taken while I was walking my dog the other morning.

A few weeks ago, I wrote that I’d clued a certain flower cryptically because I was tired of seeing it clued as “daisy relative.”  Then came my granddaughter’s fixation with a certain cartoon mouse and her best friend.   A cruciverbalist’s mind is never at rest, so while I was pretending to be 1A for my granddaughter’s amusement – my impression isn’t exactly spot-on, but it does the trick – I decided the 1A/4D combination would be a good seed for today’s midi.

So many fun clues here: 7A, 11A, 27A, 33A (my favorite), 2D, 30D, and 31D. Imitating 1A requires special oral skills! My 93-year-old mother does a spot on imitation I’ve never been able to replicate.
