‘NYT Mini' Crossword Clues And Answers For Tuesday, May 13
Wondering what is means to submit a CV? Not sure pointer might be used to highlight a talking point? Don't worry, because I'm here to help you with the answers for today's NYT Mini crossword.
The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays.
Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you'll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives.
Here are the NYT Mini Crossword clues and answers for Tuesday, May 13:
Spoilers lie ahead, so remember to scroll slowly:
1 Across: "Pointer" used to highlight a talking point – LASER
6 Across: Submit a C.V. – APPLY
7 Across: Get behind the wheel – DRIVE

It took me 0:21 to complete today's NYT Mini.
A pretty easy one today. The only answer I didn't get on the Across side was YIKES and then I filled in the planks easily enough with the Down answers
See you tomorrow for more NYT Mini fun!

Hailey Bieber Amps up Date Night Style for a Celebrity Favorite Spaghetti Spot
From Beyoncé to Taylor Swift and Rihanna (the latter popping in about three times a week), celebrities have long been using the walkway from parking lot to maître d pew at Santa Monica restaurant Giorgio Baldi as a runway. Hailey Bieber and Justin Bieber have levelled up their date night dressing for their own visit to the hole-in-the-wall spot—because if you're not dressing up for the sweetcorn agnolotti and beef carpaccio, did you really go to Giorgio's? Photographed out for dinner at the celebrity-favored Italian restaurant yesterday evening, the Biebers found a sweet spot between their own personal senses of style to almost have a matching couples moment. Hailey opted for a black longsleeve mini-dress made of rows of tight silky fabric, with an inverted collar and cinched waist. She accessorized with vintage black sunglasses, black pointed slingbacks, and a small black and gold hardware Gucci bag. She kept her almost chest-length, tousled and sun-bleached hair in a middle part, and sported an on-trend milky white manicure. To go with her tan (topped up from a recent Rhode trip to Mallorca to launch her latest lemon-themed products), a bloom of Rhode blush on her cheeks. Husband Justin, meanwhile, kept to his usual look: a light gray beanie hat, with a bright blue hoodie and oversized leather jacket, loose blue jeans, and a pair of quilted shoes from his recently launched brand skylrk.
