Would not have gotten the green category.
Didn’t figure out the Purple, just made a lucky guess at the end.

Easy enough.

Fell for the rainbow herring. After that pretty straightforward.
Connections SUNDAY
Puzzle #1204
Spotted Purple right away so avoided that red herring (which was a nice one).

Fat-fingered my purple leftovers, no clear order for the rest.
Red Herring and then muscled through.

Puzzle #1205
Still trying for a reverse rainbow. Made one error early on but was able to fix it.
Was thinking Bloody Mary instead of oysters so had celery instead of mignonette.
Connections Monday
Puzzle #1205
could have gone in any order really

Puzzle #1205
Confident leftovers for purple and a reasonable order for the rest equals a reverse rainbow.
Failed today’s. I kept looking for a fourth Mexican State and didn’t recover from those two mistakes.
I got my seventh reverse rainbow today. Note that I never deliberately try to get a reverse rainbow. When it happens it’s because I actually found the connections in reverse rainbow order.
This is Tuesday’s game. Purple was leftovers.
Puzzle #1206
Yeah, I was thinking that too at first, but having failed to find anything that could even plausibly be a fourth, I decided to move on.
I didn’t know about oysters specifically, but all four of those seemed like they would have some sort of culinary connection, and it paid off.
