Me neither. I would never have guessed the purple category.

Whew, so not my brain failing after sharing a bottle of wine at my belated birthday dinner. I connected quite well with my meal!

But not with these categories.

A fail here. I knew one of the categories, but obviously didn’t remember the write names that went in it:

I was totally stuck after the first two. Then I suddenly spotted the purple connection!
Would never have figured out the blue.

This is annoying–for the last two days, Connections is not saving my answers. It’s as if I didn’t play. So I can’t record it, and not sure what was the blue and the purple (I did eventually get it, but one of the categories was pretty much a guess, and one was totally unfamiliar to me. Don’t remember which was which color though.)

Blue was only right because it was last. Had no idea what that connection was.

I didn’t know blue either. Saw yellow right away but had 5 I thought could fit.

I got green and yellow. Brute force applied to blue and purple. It stops being fun when I have to do that.

Purple took me awhile but I’m finally figuring out to ask myself how they could connect.

Blue I would never have gotten so I’m thankful it was the only choice remaining.

But bleh.
