ALL-IN-CLUE-SIVE

Today's theme features seven long entries that contain both clue and answer. One must get enough crosses to figure them out. Not my favorite type of theme, but somewhat clever. NINETIMESOUTOFTEN is probably my favorite, and MOUSEERADICATOR is also good. More forced-seeming were PACIFISTSRENOUNCEMENT and CASTAREALLYLONGLOOK. But, I mean, they're fine.

California NEWT

UNSHUT (Ajar, say) was bold. DANSK (Copenhagen language, to locals) was interesting. "Eight more than a dozen" (SCORE) was fun. But I have never once worried about the APPETITES of dinner guests.
