GASPS |
HUFFS |
PUFFS |
PANTS |
As a big guy, HUFFS and PUFFS were clear outliers here and got us started quickly in the yellow category. Despite PANTS trying to trick us into some sort of clothing category, we ended up scoring this one right away. A great start to a Connections win.

CANS |
CURES |
SALTS |
SMOKES |
Mmmm Meat! CURES and SMOKES were the start of today’s green category for us. CANS, JAMS, and PICKLES created a little confusion as originally we expected this to be a generic ‘Preserve Food’ category. Once we were able to let that go, SALTS came into play and it was another quick score.

Blue Answers: Revealed & Explained

PREDICAMENTS |

BINDS |
JAMS |
SPOTS |
PICKLES |
The blue category was filled with words that confused us on other colors today. We refused to let go of the idea of ‘Jar Preserving’ with PICKLES and JAMS. This definitely caused us to waste a few attempts, but didn’t make us lose the game overall.
SPOTS was a tough word to reconcile as well. “In a SPOT” makes sense, as does “in a PICKLE” or “in a JAM,” but the word SPOTS on its own just doesn’t make us think ‘Predicament’ like the others do. I suppose that’s the point of the game though and I’m nit-picking a win for no reason.

THINGS IN “MY FAVORITE THINGS” |

KETTLES |
MITTENS |
RAINDROPS |
WHISKERS |
RAINDROPS and roses and WHISKERS on kittens, These are a few of my favorite things! These were actually our leftover words for today as we did not at all remember ‘bright copper KETTLES’ being a favorite thing. Why would a KETTLE be someone’s favorite thing? I like tea as much as the next guy, but to call the vessel for making it “My Favorite Thing”? Oscar Hammerstein is a weird dude.
