Good morning!

QBw2LLH to find my two last words, hubbub and dumdum. Today I'm at genius with the pangram, with only a few words to go. Hoping for inspiration!

LB: I first had judger-rhythmist, then saw rhythm-misjudge. I have a 2fer today also.

Happy puzzling!

Morning!

QBw2LL, last word dumdum. I did go to SBB because I like to see if the words I am missing are unusual on their tally, but I didn't use any of their suggestions or hints. So not sure how that counts.

LB rhythm-misjudge.

[ab_grp]

Good morning!

Not yet to genius and neither pangram yet.  Husband got them, but it took him a bit.  Hopefully inspiration will strike me! Yesterday I got to QBABM.  Somehow my final word was dull.

I also got judgers-smithy for LB.

Happy solving!

Morning!

QBw2LL, last word cioppino. LB got a hint for forbearing-getup. New word! I tried forebear b4ss.

Happy solving!

[ab_grp]

Good morning! (barely)

A bit past genius with pangrams so far.  Yesterday I finally got both pangrams and got close to QB, but no dice.  We didn't have team QB, either.  We were both missing mochi.

And no luck on LB, either!

Happy solving!

Afternoon!

QB. QB yesterday, but needed BB for monophonic and cioppino.

forbearing/getup

Happy solving!

[cathwen]

Good afternoon!

QB yesterday with help for honcho, mimic, and nincompoop, my last word. I got mochi completely by accident! I never would have thought of it otherwise. Pangram and beyond genius today.

LB: I also had forbearing-getup. No luck yet today.

Happy puzzling!

Good morning!

Almost QB. Last word yesterday was hellhole.

I know I found a twofer, but can't remember what it was.

Happy solving!

Morning!

QBwSBB, last word hogan. LB got a hint for paves-snowmobile. Darn compounds always get me.

Happy solving!

[cathwen]

Good afternoon!

QBwSBB, last word gonna. Today I'm beyond genius with the pangram, a few more words to go.

LB: vapes-snowmobile, found with a hint. Today's LB has me totally flummoxed, so no 2fer yet.

Happy puzzling!

[ab_grp]

Good morning!

Past genius with pangram so far.  Yesterday we ended up needing help with a few words, including hellhole, galleon, longan.

I actually got the schmofficial 2fer yesterday! But I am kind of surprised that it ended up being vapes instead of paves (and that the latter didn't occur to me at all).  I have some ideas today, but lots of tough letters.  Hopefully something obvious pops out.

Happy solving!

Morning!

QBwH - last word cancan. LB - ended up getting a hint for psychology-yakuza and learned a new word.

Happy solving!

[ab_grp]

Good morning!

Got to a bit past genius with pangram so far.  Yesterday we had team QB.  I was missing cancan, cetacean.

I got the schmoffical psychology-yakuza but think we might have had that one before (at least the latter word, because I remember thinking it was a proper noun at the time). 

Happy solving!

Good morning!

QB. Needed BB for cetacean.

Happy solving!

[cathwen]

Good morning!

QBwH for last two words, cetacean and cayenne. Today I'm at genius with the pangram.

LB: psychology-yakuza. I only got the last word because scenes from Hawaii Five-O popped into my head. The yakuza (Yakuza?) figure in many of the episodes. Like ab_grp, I thought it was a proper noun. Another word for my Bee list!

Happy puzzling!
