In the beginning I just stared at them because I could not find a pattern that only had 4. It was probably my longest time before starting to guess that I’ve had in playing Connections. Took me longer than usual, but I had some lucky guesses.

That was tricky! I think one of the purples was a stretch, but I still loved the moment when I could see the sorting😊.

Was a struggle. Funny, the first three of us had problems with different categories.

First time I got purple first. And I ended up solving from hardest (purple) to easiest (yellow).

A comment on yesterday’s puzzle, #116.
The purple category Insect Homophones contained Flee, Nat, Beatle, and Aunt. In my area Aunt is not pronounced like the insect.

My husband does an east coast pronunciation of aunt - awnt. I say it like the insect.
