This
was
a
surprisingly
easy
Connections
puzzle
even
by
recent
examples,
although
I
still
contrived
to
make
one
mistake.
That
was
a
silly
one;
I’m
sure
the
misdirection
was
intended
by
the
NYT,
and
I
walked
right
into
the
trap.
I’m
talking,
of
course,
about
BLOODY,
RARE,
WELL
DONE
and
MEDIUM
–
which
could
have
been
‘Ways
to
cook
a
steak’.
But
no,
all
four
words
actually
belonged
to
alternative
groups.

That
quickly
became
apparent,
when
I
looked
again
and
realized
that
MEDIUM,
MYSTIC,
ORACLE
and
PSYCHIC
were
all
words
for
a
CLAIRVOYANT
(yellow)
and
that
COLLECTIBLE,
EXCLUSIVE,
LIMITED,
RARE
all
formed
a
green
group
for
SPECIAL
EDITION
ADJECTIVES.

That
left
blue
and
purple,
and
this
time
neither
was
too
complicated.
No
‘blank
something’
type,
no
clever
cryptic
connections
–
simply
a
couple
of
groups,
both
of
which
were
fairly
obvious.

How
did
you
do
today?
