The answers to today's Connections, game #599, are GREEN: GAME DAY FARE BEER, 
DIP, PIZZA, WINGS YELLOW: INTANGIBLE QUALITY AIR, AURA, HALO, VIBE BLUE: KEEP 
GOING ON ABOUT, WITH "ON" DWELL, HARP, INSIST, LINGER PURPLE: STARTING WITH 
EUROPEAN CAPITALS BERNIE, PARISH, RIGATONI, ROMEO My rating: Hard My score: 2 
mistakes 

Todays random set of words remained random for quite a while, until I slowly 
made sense of it. 

I fell for the very obvious trap, convincing myself that we were looking for 
angelic accoutrements  WINGS, HALO, HARP  before abandoning this quest after 
linking BEER, DIP and PIZZA with snack food essentials. 

If a group has anything to do with food then Ill get it, but the second Im 
required to apply some actual general knowledge I flounder and this was the 
case today with STARTING WITH EUROPEAN CAPITALS; Paris and Rome I should have 
seen, but Riga, the capital of Latvia, was a stretch. And full disclosure I 
thought the capital of Switzerland was Zurich, not Bern. 

How did you do today? Let me know in the comments below. Yesterday's NYT 
Connections answers (Wednesday, 29 January, game #598) YELLOW: OWNED BORE,

WICKED PURPLE: ____ HOUSE FULL, GINGERBREAD, HAUNTED, WHITE What is NYT 
Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
