Thanks, I found rivulet but nothing to pair it with.
After I screened out the UV rays, the OA came to me in no THYME.
Good one!
OA today
Yup, A quick OA
Same
Me Too! OA quickly!
OA, but only after trying to make things ending in TRY work!
An LB short story:
Can’t OUTRHYMEʷ—ELVIRAⁿ, mistress of the dark.
After delivering her ULTRAVIOLET—TETRAMETHYL^, HAVIOUR°—RHYMELET,
she carefully crosses the RIVULET—THYMOMATA^, and reaches the port of MARIOUⁿ—ULTRAHEAVY^.
The End

NIce! 🙂
Thanks! I couldn’t ignore Elvira. 😊
ULTRAVIOLET – THYME.
First word found was VIOLET. After a while, I found ULTIMATELY which made me notice the ULTRA- prefix. Game ended after 1 hour.
Struggled with this one for awhile. But finally stumbled upon ULTRA. The rest of the OA came quickly.
OA after trying lots of words. Found Violet right away. It took awhile to pair it with Ultra. When I finally did the Ultraviolet – Thyme solve was right there. Happy Saturday.
OA
ULTRAVIOLET-THYME pretty quickly
TI: a glowing herb garden
ULTRAVIOLET — THYMOL
Thymol absorbs ultraviolet light due to its benzene rings.
Found VIOLET and then ULTRAVIOLET, and THYMOL was fast.
LB accepts TETRAETHYL, but won’t take TETRAMETHYL.
I was hoping that ULTRAHEAVY and HEAVYHEART were words, but I guess not.
VAULT THYMOMA ARIEL
Rivulet-them-moray
Oa. Took me a while.
Ultraviolet – Thyme
Was grateful this one came relatively quickly. It’s been a hard group of words this month for me.
The second I found ultraviolet, I knew it had to be the OA. Can’t always tell.
VIOLET THEM MORTUARY
MOVIE EARTHLY YURT
MOVIE EARTH HOURLY
VIM MOUTHLY YEAR
VULVA AMITROLE* EARTHY
*Scrabble
That last one could also be ETHYL instead of EARTHY.
ULTRAVIOLET-THYME
OA
OA in about 1-2 minutes.
First, Movie – earthly – yule
Then worked at it for OA
So close! Totally missed ULTRA- and got stuck go around in circles with METHYL(OL), ARMOURY, TELEMOVIE, EARTHLY, VOLUTE….ended with VIM – MOULE – EARTHLY
Found a few other words that haven’t come up yet :
[VIM] – MAHOUT (elephant trainer) – TELEMETRY
Not enough time today, going with oar rivulet thyme. Did see amateurly,hauteur,variometry,maritime
TRIMETHYL* – LOUVAR
TETRAMETHYL* – LULOVIM*
Must be easy today for I found a few:
1. BESTOWING – GRAVE (OA)
2. WAVES – STROBING
3. BRAINWAVES – STRONG
4. BRAVEST – TOWING
5. BROWNING – GRAVEST
This one defeated me. Settled for a three-word solve: AUTHORLY-YAM-MOVIE
