I am missing something.
How can you find a word you don't know ?

Yesterday I needed 6 and felt like a real loser - but today I got it in two. Yay!

Well, there were four letters in the right place and I still didn't recognise it. So I just kept trying different letters in the last place until it told me I had won. Afterwards I looked up the word and it was from a realm of activity I'd never been involved in. The word was scrim.

Awesome! Are you still playing sedecordle? How many turns does that usually take?

 

[MaryJanet]

I'm off to the dentist for a filling and a crown this morning I haven't slept well from worrying about it and now I've got a headache. I may treat myself to a full day off work and take an afternoon nap or walk.

Yes. Not every day. You get 21 guesses and sometimes I need them all. My most typical is to do it in 19 guesses.
I aspire to get it done in 18 guesses - which means I need to get a word by guess number 3 and then not miss another one. It is quite a challenge. I have managed it a couple of times. I think there is a bit more strategy to Sedecordle which is what I like about it - but it can feel a bit overwhelming!

Hope the dentist wasn’t as bad as you were expecting. I really need to go myself.
Because we were talking about it I gave Sedecordle a go and got it in 18 guesses. Yay!

And on the subject of old tech kitchen equipment here is one I do use quite often. I think it must have been my grandmother’s. I have a lot of her kitchen stuff and I do use a fair bit of it.

Thank you RC. I'm home again now and resting.

One more crown to go, but it's not til September.

That's a lovely old whisk! Think of all the baking it's seen... When Nurse Blossom has discharged me from the recuperation ward, I'll share a similar photo.

Lol… nurse Blossom. Feel better soon.
