Autocorrect changed my solution to Snow gloves – Sharia. LB accepted Snowglobes.
Another BANGERS SLOWISH, pretty quickly.
Bighorns — Showable after LB wouldn’t accept Wrangles — Shibori

Another REGIONS SHOWABLE, also RESIGNS SHOWABLE. Missed Shanghai/s so I couldn’t pair Snowblower/s. Lots of 3w’s, some quite amusing or good TI. Kept trying to get a better 2w, but finally left it. Missed Showgirl, though I had Show and Girl.
