Avoided the date specific red herring. Green by default.

I've definitely lost the Connections knack. But I did avoid the red herring, so yay for that 😅

Oh I fell for the red herring. Lost my two day streak. Or was it three? Anyway. Bah.

And then I go straight to Strands and the red herring is today’s theme. Obviously with today’s date!

I saw the red herring and thought, “those sly buggers are out to trap us because of the date.” And they were, the cheeky sods!

No default today, pleased I spotted purple.

(As an aside, Is 'Milk' one of the most occurring Connection words?)

Purple was a random lucky guess 🤣
Green by default.

That is a such a lovely pattern for kitchen tiles! Pretend that’s what you were aiming for.

Fell for the red herring but not too bad other than that. Hadn't heard of one of the greens used in that context.
