Purple was the first one I saw. Blue was leftovers.

It’s Wednesday. This one was not quite as easy as yesterday, but it did not pose any problems either.

EASY-Peasy, and the red herring was too obvious.

Pretty happy with myself to suss it and sort the color before commiting.

Once I ignored what I thought was an obvious red herring it was easy although I wasn’t specific enough on purple.

Again with the yellow/green mixup. Green seemed so obvious, but maybe that’s just my age showing.

I’d never heard of one of the green ones, so I had to guess.

Sometimes a red herring isn’t a red herring…

Until it is.

Thursday, and similar to yesterday I saw the red herring and was suspicious.

I had green highlighted and about to submit as my third guess. Then I said to myself, “You usually get green and yellow reversed.” So I changed my guess and ended up with green and yellow reversed. Aaaaaaaargh!

Friday. I really should not have made that mistake.
