While yesterday’s NYT Connections was fairly easy, today’s puzzle ramps it up a bit more. The Yellow category was quite easy to begin and solve as Light and Mellow naturally connected together. From then on it was a simple task of joining Mild and Soft together to full get it.
While I am not a big meat eater, I have heard of Pork Belly and Pork Shoulder. I then Googled Hock and realised it was meat too. That’s how I got that category. I then moved onto the Blue section and started thinking of parts of what a Queen would hold. Fortunately, I was half there as I still got the answers.
With only four words left, I connected the words, got the Purple category and got the NYT Connections for December 24.
