Got hung up on blue b/c I was thinking that yellow (airport) was the category with 5, rather than purple (compound words). Once I moved windsock and realized that beanbag could be moved I was done.

I started by putting windsock with the airport stuff. I legit saw the legal terms, and then tried to guess which of the compound words went with the remaining blues. I did not think of jugglers, just “compound words that might go with these other words in a video game or something.”

P

with 7 compound words it took some effort for me.saw legal first, but had a hard time moving off windsock for airport -focused on runway having alternate uses, then maybe terminal.once only 5 compounds were left, saw p conn. B after reveal, it sucked. Balls, knives, chainsaws, bowling pins.

Blue was just what was left, didn’t take the time to figure it out.

But I just had purple as compound words, not as specifically ending in clothing. Wasn’t sure about blue, was thinking “things you toss”, but guessed at it because I didn’t know which compound words to guess

foxglove was such an odd word, I didn’t see it as a compound word or even a word, but thought it was a name of character from something

First two words I linked were camel toe and camel cigarettes. I was a bit surprised the NYT would go there, but couldn’t find anything else with camel. Then blue was my final category, so I had to pair them after all.
