Excellent job! I burned all my mistakes in the last two categories in Connections, struggling to find the romantic letter sign-offs, and I didn't see the gold category. I also got 6 on Wordle and fell for an ER trap on the first guess. For Strands, I prioritize speed over finding the Spangram first, and I found the Spangram third after finding Biscuits and Gravy without any hints.

Connections: Everything, but the time. All categories, no mistakes, and right order. 9/10 Strands: Got it in under 5 minutes, but couldn't get it under 3. Spangram first, and no hints. What's hilarious is I saw "Biscuits", "Gravy", and "Cheese" together, and I immediately thought of Poutine. Didn't even realize that they correlated to other words until after getting the Spangram.

I don't think that "Yours" and "Always" are particularly romantic. I was a young lady once. 😄
