64 worder today. Whew, that’s really wide-open. Hope you like it. No bonus points for figuring out what the seed was. Sorry, it’s just too obvious today.

Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.

Yes, I most certainly like it. Not only did I learn what Gwyneth Paltrow calls getting a divorce, but as a bonus found out she has a daughter named Apple.
It took Google to figure out that 35A doesn’t have anything to do with El Salvador.

Thanks for the puzzle, I enjoyed it. No idea what the seed was or, in fact, is. 🙁

I don’t think the clue and answer match in 48A. A better clue would be “Reminded one of”.
