So, what is today's connection answer in game #375

Drum roll, please

After yesterday's refreshing end, Thursday will come and you will eat a little bit of humble pie, or at least I did 

Soon, I had a yellow category with nails, screws, and nuts My first guess was a strike because I had a bolt instead of a washing machine This was the theme of the day

Immediately after the green category stood out Flies, hooks and sinkers were quickly discovered Again, replaced with a rod instead of a line Hit two out of four I may have tried to keep the rod around longer than I should have, but usually something to swap jumps out quickly

when I got the dryer, the mirror and the sink I wasn't thinking about the hair salon The only reason I tried the chair was because it didn't fit the other categories I was looking at 

Getting blue fills purple quickly and I wasn't surprised by Bolt, bug, rod, Strike answers I was looking for a golf related game, but I don't know why that connection is what I wanted That said, I was very bothered by the rod I continue to be annoyed by the rod 

Read this later in the time zone According to Connections Companion, Connections answers in game #28 with a difficulty rating of 374 is:

I don't know if yesterday and today have soothed how difficult I found Monday's puzzle, but this puzzle has time for me to think about it

The yellow category is pretty easy and there are 4 words that mean yes But I actually saw the green category first I tend to take the "Magic Eye puzzle" approach to my first look at the word So the court and the date jumped out at me Maybe it's all Bridgerton going around Wu and Shi fell quickly

I loved getting purple early and the way the board shifted after getting the first two categories dropped Tarot and palm right next to it I was thinking about "reading" and immediately found the aura and tea

I'm not sure if I got the blue category if it wasn't the last four words I see connections between what they represent in today's puzzle, but I didn't even connect them until the end when I really saw any of those words as a possibility in other categories
