Yellow Answers: Revealed & Explained

AFFLUENT FLUSH LOADED RICH WEALTHY

Yellow was the second category we scored today and it came quite quickly. RICH and WEALTHY were the obvious starters but it didn't take long at all to see the others and score a quick win. Which is good because it’s going to be a short game and then I gotta get home for lunch.

Green Answers: Revealed & Explained

CUT INTO PIECES CHOP CUBE DICE MINCE

We actually scored green in first place today. I think it has to do with our love of cooking, MINCE, DICE, and CHOP all popped up right away in our brains and we noticed CUBE almost immediately after that. Whenever we score the first category this fast it really makes us feel like the Colossus of Clout (the Colossus of Clout). CUBE, DICE, and SQUARE did try to trick us with their similarities, but it didn't last very long.

FRUIT HOMOPHONES BURY CURRENT LEACHY PAIR

The homophones strike again! I swear there will never be a day that I score correctly in a homophone category. They always end up being the leftover words for us. But that's okay, a win is a win and I'm gonna walk away with my head held high.
