"NYT 'Strands' Hints and Answers: April 10th-15th"

The New York Times' Strands puzzle for today focused on opposites in common phrases, with the theme hint "This and that" and an extra hint "It’s raining cats and dogs." The spangram for today's puzzle was "PARTNERS," linking opposite sides of the grid. The words found in the puzzle included "Trial and Error," "Smoke and Mirrors," "Give and Take," and "Peace and Quiet," with each pair of words serving as partners in common phrases. The unique structure of the theme made it a particularly clever and challenging Strands puzzle.
