BLUEPRINTTHAW
OA today!
OA for me too. Cryogenic crime scene?
Chalk that feeble attempt at a clever TI to early-morning senility that will probably last through the day.
Way off! So wanted HEPARIN, NAPHTHA or BILIRUBIN to work!
And Halibut! And Nephew! And Pawprint, which is not a word somehow? Tried Paraphenalia but eventually figured out I was spelling it wrong! So at least I learned something. Finally found the OA, which instantly announced itself as such.
I like your TI, Goldie! I can’t think of a single theme after finally arriving at OA. It was a tricky LB week for me.
BLUEPRINT – THAW
Recovering mammoth DNA.
OA after a good deal of time spent.
I tried to get NEPHEW to work, but that just caused frustration. TI with my life.
I wouldnt have thought of that but solved it using nephew.
Are you saying you found a pairing with Nephew? Or did you mean a three-worder?
OA here as well. Methinks this one is fairly constrained as well. Half cup of coffee left at least. Off to SB. Happy Friday all!
Am a little embarrassed, as I’m one of those that tends to take 3 words more often than not. But for those of ‘us’ that aren’t usually smart, lucky, or getting along with letter selection well enough to nail it in two… I got: WEBINAR-RALPH-HUT
Nothing in two so
WEALTH – HAIRPIN – NEBULA
Musk’s space car.
OA. I really wanted BRAINBLIP to work but that drew a penalty flag.
I missed OA today. Went with HALIBUT TRIPLANE EWE. Lol
Warpaint and a terrible headache before OA hours later. Kinda hate this game lately.
No solution for me. Got the one-shy HALIBUT-TURPENTINE, also fiddled with WEBINAR to no avail.
blueprint – thaw
HALIBUT TRIPLANE EWE
HALIBUT TURNIP PEW
Not PSW or LB accepted, but perhaps a tiny new addition to the Linnaean family tree– a Tubularia’s sister just had a baby.
TUBULARIAN* – NEPHEW
*Hydriform in tubular shape with a wide disk, a manubrium, and solid tentacles; of or pertaining to the Tubulariæ, or gymnoblastic hydrozoans.
Here is the full list including Scrabble words:
