Another easy Strands puzzle, although the thing it describes – being tidy – is something I struggle with a lot.
I like my house to be the opposite of my brain: disorganized, cluttered, and the opposite of everything listed here.
I first spotted ORDER, then added the final letters to create ORDERLY. SHIPSHAPE jumped next, and once I solved the spangram – easily located in the middle of the board – the others fell into place CLEAN and TIDY.
