Does anyone want a Blossom thread? Not sure if I'll keep doing it but saw this recommended on another thread and I find it more fun than NYT Spelling Bee. (Which you can't get far on for free anyway).

And the Pangram(?) was ECONOMICS...

You have to use the central letter in all words, but all letters can be used multiple times.

A pangram is any word containing all 7 letters at least once.

@Seeline
Thanks for the explanation.
I'll give it another go tomorrow.

I enjoy Wordle and Quiz of the Day too.
