I was able to solve a tough word today in Wordle being HEADED. I unfortunately missed the word FORMER the other day. I feel that the 5 letter words are easier. 😂
I have an idea, but it's incomplete: jewels. We could use words like AMBER, BERYL, CORAL, etc. Can other people please supply other five-letter jewels? We can also do colors, which can also use some of the jewels: AMBER, BLACK, CORAL, EBONY, GREEN, LILAC, MELON, OLIVE, PINKY (if you want to cheat a little), ROSES, SEPIA, TAWNY, UMBER, VIOLA (cheating again), WHITE, etc. Can other people suggest more colors, please? They can be colors with the same first letters that I've already used.
Hi, Art! From my own ideas, the suggestions I've received here, and some research of colors via Wikipedia, I've come up with a list from which you could select. According to the word count, I have 105 colors here. If you want, I can cut it down to a list of 30 or 31 colors. I've adapted some words to fit five letters. AMBER ASHES AZURE BEIGE BLACK BLANC?

Apart from Wordle, that was a great round today! Share your results below!
You forgot FLEA CIRCUS, which has been used in a connections before. I think it was __ CIRCUS, and MEDIA was in that group, but I don't remember what the other words were.
There is also "flea bag," as in a "flea bag hotel," meaning a dirty, run-down place.
Well done, Art!
I had noticed, Art, that neither of us has gotten the order in quite a while.
You were fine in Wordle, Art, having minimal problems in this game. You did not fail in Wordle. You had a very good day with these NYT games. I like the term BULLDOZES on how well you did today, Art. 😊
Never heard pronounced that way
Indeed. Pay pul AFAIK. If its to do with the pope anyway.
The way Art pronounced it was papple, something half way between a pear and an apple
PAPAL is pronounced with a long A. "PAY-pul" not "papple." It means having to do with the Pope.
I was just going to query that !

Bull market and bear market are stock market terms. A bull market is when stock prices are on the rise. A bear market is when they are in decline.
Thank you. I enjoy getting the added knowledge from these games.

Connections was a disaster. I got the green category, and I knew what the other categories were, but I couldn’t get any of the others. Having market and food as categories has tripped me up.
Also, I forgot that “Fare” meant “Food”. I thought up of “Fare Market”

Strands I messed up. I put in "treadmill" thinking it was the spangram. found "fitness" immediately after too. Still no hints though.
I’m a bad medievalist. I should’ve gotten PAPAL sooner. Took me all six guesses. Other games were easy though.
