Today’s Mini
Sometimes the clues and my brain just don’t jibe. Moon stage made me think of the various phases of the moon, but not the word PHASE, for instance. I spelled SACHA incorrectly, which threw me for a loop. I didn’t consider that nervous airline travelers would arrive EARLY. But eventually I pieced it all together and finished this one in 1:46.
How did you do? Let me know on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.
If you also play Wordle, I write guides about that as well. You can find those and all my TV guides, reviews and much more here on my blog. Thanks for reading!
