They’re pretzels.

They actually make all kinds of things and are really good.

Today I learned that “Reverse Rainbow” is actually an official Connections thing, and not just what people here at SDMB call it.

I earned my 16th Reverse Rainbow Badge today, having taken no notice whatsoever of the first 15.

(And I was actually trying for it today! :grin:)

Failed, failed. I don’t want to talk about it any more. ha ha

It’s April Fool’s Day here, and they delivered. Also I failed, because they’re difficult,. and there was a stupid Americanism getting in the way.

I enjoyed it too, definately different from the usual.

I worked out quite quickly what 3 of the connections were but there were 5 clues that fit what turned out to be the blue group. Knowing the answer I knew only one of the elements in the so called “straight forward” group.

That was fun. I had a little trouble figuring out a couple and I had never heard of one of the yellow options but I was pretty sure it wasn’t green.

Very fun April Fool’s Day puzzle.
None of the rebuses were very tough to figure out, but I liked having to use my brain a bit differently than usual.

It’s Thursday, and I am looking forward to the long weekend. This one went fairly quickly, except Purple was leftovers. Not my wheelhouse.

I failed Wednesday. I didn’t know city city, but it was easy to see which category it would be, so I got purple right away. But from there, it all fell apart. I could see what the other three categories were, and I could solve most of the rebuses, but there were too many that I just didn’t know what they were.
