Before fully spoiling today's answers we wanted to provide a little hint in the form of the daily selection of categories. These are in order of most straightforward to trickiest, based on the game's information page.

BREATHES HEAVILY

PRESERVES, AS MEAT

PREDICAMENTS

THINGS IN “MY FAVORITE THINGS”

BREATHES HEAVILY

GASPS

HUFFS

PUFFS

PANTS

As a big guy, HUFFS and PUFFS were clear outliers here and got us started quickly in the yellow category. Despite PANTS trying to trick us into some sort of clothing category, we ended up scoring this one right away. A great start to a win.

PRESERVES, AS MEAT

CANS

CURES

SALTS

SMOKES

Mmmm Meat! CURES and SMOKES were the start of today's green category for us. CANS, JAMS, and PICKLES created a little confusion as originally we expected this to be a generic 'Preserve Food' category. Once we were able to let that go, SALTS came into play and it was another quick score.

PREDICAMENTS

BINDS

JAMS

SPOTS

PICKLES

The blue category was filled with words that confused us on other colors today. We refused to let go of the idea of 'Jar Preserving' with PICKLES and JAMS. This definitely caused us to waste a few attempts, but didn't make us lose the game overall.

SPOTS was a tough word to reconcile as well. «In a SPOT» makes sense, as does
