Yesterday was Groundhog Day and I forgot to mention it, but I figure well take a look and see how much winter we have leftnot that weve had much winter to speak of this year, at least not here in the mountains. It turns out Punxsutawney Phil did indeed see his shadow, so we have another six weeks of winter left. Could the seer of seers please check in with the snow gods and send some our way? For now, grumbling about the white fluffy stuff aside, we have a Strands grid to solve, and words to uncover. Lets do it!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: Order up!Hint #1: BreakfastMORE FOR YOUHint #2: Think omelets and so forthTo help you uncover all the words, here are the first two letters of each word:SCCOBOBAPOBAPIMARemember, spoilers ahead!What Are Todays Strands Answers?Todays spangram is: MAKINGEGGSHeres the full list of words:SCRAMBLECODDLEBOILBASTEPOACHBAKEPICKLEHeres the completed Strands grid:Today's StrandsScreenshot: Erik KainTodays Strands BreakdownAt first, I thought this would all be various cooking words once Id found BAKE and BOIL. But then I saw the word EGGS. Then I found BREAKINGEGGS, which didnt work. But I knew that it had to be something eggy. This led to POACH and BASTE and PICKLE, and then MAKINGEGGS. The final two words I came up with were SCRAMBLE and finally CODDLE. I admit, I rarely pickle or baste or poach or coddle my eggs. Im much more likely to make scrambled eggs, omelets or over-easy.How did you do on your Strands today?
