I've been playing since it went live and haven't missed a day.

It's like a UK show called Only Connect. It's a train your brain to see the connections kind of thing. But sometimes there are just too many possible crossover words!

I freely admit todays blue one was my last to figure out. When I opened it and saw all those single letters I was like, 'oh, come on man!' 😂

I'm also addicted to Spelling Bee and get major excited when I get Queen Bee. I'm weird. 🤷🏻‍♀️😁
