We all BOO-BOO and make mistakes or GOOF at inappropriate timesas I started laughing to keep myself from crying. We all know that different people react differently to these situations, but usually most people are embarrassed nonetheless. However, it's a good thing if you do, because it proves that we're not yet living under the complete rule of AI.

As summer heats up, flowers are still abundant – at least in places that have received enough water. Luckily, I don't live in a droughty place right now and we get plenty of rain to keep these pretty flowers alive.
Unless of course the opposite happens and we get too much rain for the flowers to handle. Interestingly, at least two of these flowers are associated with the idea of death or eternal sleep in addition to being just flowers.

This was a little interesting because POLLINATE could easily end up with flowers. The bees also take care of the flowers, which I really liked category relationship between the two.
It's nice to see several thematic categories together in the same puzzle, especially when the words are still different enough that they can stand out, but it's fun to put together and think about. This is one of the small joys Connections I can't wait for it to happen.

This is the scary sports category of the day! While some of you are excited to see a sports ball category, my interest in most sports starts about a day before the Olympics and ends the day after.
So, with my interest completely zoned out for another two years, I fell a bit out of that category. The good thing about the purple category is that its difficulty often makes sense you can just pick out the last four words and know they are true.
