TRANQUILLIMERICK
QUICKLIME ENTREAT
my submission : QUICKLIME- ENTRANT
Same
Quicklime Entrail. Yechhh! Straight out of Buffalo Bill’s basement. Also goes with Earnt, Electrician, Entrain(ment), Entrance(ment), and Entrant, but I feel the TI prize goes to Entrail.
Same
Same: QUICKLIME – ENTRANT
quicklime – entrail
Similarly, QUICKLIME-ENTRAIN
QUICKLIME ENTRANCE
After wrestling with QUICKENER and REQUIREMENT.
Matrilinear Requicken
Whatever.
TRANQUIL-LIMERICK
QUICKLIME-ENTRANCE
TRUCKLER-RAMEQUIN*
*RAMEQUIN good in OED, Merriam-Webster, Collins, Scrabble US (TWL) but not LB
REQUIREMENT-TRANCELIKE
Damn! I spotted REQUIREMENT in the early going but couldn’t figure out how to use the remaining A, L, C and K. Well done sir!
Thanks!
REQUIREMENT / TRANCELIKE too.
Good one. Got requirement but couldn’t find the second
TRANQUIL—LIMERICK
ICEMAKER—RELINQUENT
QUICKLIME—ELECTRICIAN
QUICKLIME—ENTRANCEMENT
REQUIREMENT—TRANCELIKE
Requirement trancelike
Found Limerick but didn’t see Tranquil. Finally found Requirement and Trancelike. Not the most efficient solution, but I will take it. Have a great weekend all.
Good one! ICEMAKER-RELINQUENT
TRANQUIL LIMERICK (or not)
On a campout dark clouds hid the starlight.
So I thought it safe to tend business just out of sight.
But as I squatted to go
The wind started to blow
Causing two moons glow in the night.
(part 2: reckless romantic)
I stood at the edge of a canyon;
Wishing I had a like minded companion.
So, to one I did yell
But they got startled and fell,
And that canyon I did quickly abandon.
(Part 3: nature lover)
My skinny dip ended up brief
Cause my clothes were taken by a thief.
So, though nature is tranquil,
And for the beauty I’m thankful
Thorns and briars are painful and I need relief.
Your forest-bathing sounds alarmingly fraught!
😄😄😄
Grim one today
Quicklime entrail
QUICKLIME ENTRANT a little cheerier.
OA.
OA
QUICKLIME – ENTRAIL
CEMENT TRANQUIL
Missing K
QUICKLIME-EARNT
Oops ..no K in cement tranquil ..OA is best
TRANQ – QUICKLIME
Thought this would be the OA, pivoting on the Q.
Got that too (14/2), and these:
Quicklime-entrail (16/2)
Tranquil-limerick (16/2)
I can’t recall repeating the Q (do we/y’all call that the pivot letter?)
Same.
I thought this would be the OA, too. It’s such an elegant solution because of pivoting on the Q and because the only letters left after finding QUICKLIME are TRAN.
Anyway, I just wanted to say that I agree with you.
Quicklime – entrance
Same here. Either get it in a minute like today, or end up quitting in frustration!
OA
QUICKLIME — EARNT
QUICKLIME — ENTRANCE
QUICKLIME — ENTRANCEMENT
QUICKLIME — ENTREATMENT
QUICKLIME — ELECTRICIAN
QUiCKLIME — ENTRAINMENT
The key for me was finding QUICKLIME 😉
OA. 5 in a row.
OA.
So much quicklime today! Handy word to know. You all must be contractors or it’s a heavily used word in games. I’m relatively new to all this.
And I found Aquamarine inspiring until I couldn’t match it.
Shows up in murder mysteries all the time as the tool of choice for disposing of dead bodies.I’m
REQUIREMENT – TRANCELIKE
Acid Expectations
MATRILINEAR – REQUICKEN
Gloria Steinem says hurry up
We need another matriarch
Girl mom in a rush again
I was surprised by how many possible answers there were.
OA after spending way too much time with CURTAILMENT, REQUIREMENT, RAMEKIN, TRUCULENCE among others….. QUICKLIME going on the list 🙂
Excellent words!
Tranquil limerick: A monk sought a life that was still,
Atop a serene, grassy hill.
But one peaceful night,
A goat took a bite—
Now his robe has a draft and a chill!
I got the OA TRANQUIL – LIMERICK but couldn’t match yours !!
Yay! Well done!
QUICKLIME ENTRAIL
Ooooh. I think I found a unique solution, probably because it is so clumsy.
MUCKRAKER-RELINQUENT
QUICKLIKE–ENTRAINMENT
Wish I had thought of QUICKLIME, though. It would have saved me some time.
I ended up getting QUICKLIKE-ENTRAINMENT too. I didn’t know QUICKLIKE was a real word! I didn’t think of QUICKLIME at all, or either of the OA words.
Other things I found were:
REQUIREMENT
CURTAILMENT
QUICKER-RAIMENT or QUICKER-REMNANT (no L)
QUICKER-RAILMEN (no T)
QUANT-TRICKLE (no M)
QUICKLIKE-ENTREATMENT
QUICKLIME-EARNT
QUICKLIME-ENTRANCE
OA after a lot of time on REQUICKEN and AQUAMARINE.
Best I could do today was trailmaker requicken. Tried lots with requirement aquamarine muckraker quicklike electrum meatlike airliner and others. Could have used quicklime and trancelike
QUICKLIKE – ENTRANCEMENT
