The year is already zipping by, it seems, as February kicks off with not a hint of snow. Yesterday I went hiking and found myself altogether too warm in a hoodie. I saw people walking in tank-tops. This is not natural. Something is wrong. Its hard to complain on a beautiful sunny day, but I imagine the forest fires waiting just around the corner. Its a bit frightening. I will distract myself with games and puzzles! Speaking of which, lets uncover some words.Strands is the newest game in the New York Times stable of puzzle games. Its a fun twist on classic word search games. Every day were given a new theme and then tasked with uncovering all the words on the grid that fit that theme, including a spangram that spans two sides of the board. One of these words is the spangram which crosses from one side of the grid to another and reveals even more about the days theme.Spoilers ahead.Todays Strands HintsTodays Theme: Album of the yearHint #1: Music awardsHint #2: Last namesTo help you uncover all the words, heres a name to go with each word:TAYLORCHRISTOPHERHARRYSTEVIENORAHLAURYNCAROLERemember, spoilers ahead!What Are Todays Strands Answers?Todays spangram is: GRAMMYWINNERSHeres the full list of words:SWIFTCROSSSTYLESWONDERJONESHILLKINGHeres the completed Strands grid:Today's StrandsScreenshot: Erik KainTodays Strands BreakdownAdmittedly, while the hint wasnt particularly trickyAlbum of the year describes exactly what were looking forit still took me awhile to get this started, and even once Id found many of the names and the spangram I still struggled with a couple of these at the end.
