Kind of easy for me. I'm not much of an drinker, so I had to dig into the deep recesses of my memories to find these.

It was very easy for me today. I saw what I thought was martini immediately but turned out to be margarita then mojito the spanagram and the rest of the words in about a minute and a half.

Have I mentioned I hate homophones?

I liked it!
Sure, they coulda just been straightforward with food items, like pear, meat. . . . But going with homophones for these added a nice touch to the challenge.

I struggled today. I saw stake but it didn't register that the spelling was incorrect for a food item because I was so locked into that train of thought. I banked more clue words then any game I can remember. I finally took the clue, meet. Then I realized it was words that sound like other words, but it was still slow going.

Needed that hint to get going. I was thinking other cities in Tennessee.

Yeah, It was slow going for me. I thought the same about other cities or famous places in Nashville. Saw the word country but came up short. It did get me on track for thinking about singers though. I was looking for dolly and got nothing then saw brooks for a hit. I realized they were going with last names and saw twain. I revisited country looking for singers and found stars. I'm not that familiar with country singers but these were pretty big names and it helped having watched The Voice and American Idol over the years.

I thought country music immediately and names were easy to find. The ‘beyond’ reference of crossover artists didn’t register until just now.
