Drum roll please…

Behave well as a saying: to fulfill, to honor, to maintain, to maintain
Bedding: blanket, fake, sheets, throw

Then came the purple category, which took me to great heights. At first I thought honor and justice might be related, but with no other clues pointing to positions in the field, my news junkie senses kicked in and selected energy, labor, and state as other federal departments besides justice.

The nice thing about purple is that a surprising number of the most difficult grouping categories are simply ____ (word) or (word) ____.

If you sometimes get stuck, try adding a word or creating a phrase; You will probably find the color purple. This is my situation yesterday. At one point I switched to cruise control (especially since the cruise ship was clearly out there) and the other three words quickly clicked from there: birth, quality and remote.

I still wasn’t sure between the last two, but the hut, plant, club and wedge seemed like a safer bet, which was true. Although I was still in the building mindset when thinking about the hostel and the plant.

So I ended yesterday with the blue category in the Monopoly box, consisting of hotels, houses, deeds and tokens. I’m not sure I can get there organically. An infamous story in my family is that I decided I was done with that terrible game and “retired” in the middle, selling all my possessions and possessions and then moving my token to the middle of the board. I recommend.
