The answers to today's Connections, game #777, are YELLOW: "NOTHING TO IT!" 
CHILD'S PLAY, EASY, NO SWEAT, PIECE OF CAKE GREEN: OUTDOOR EVENTS BLOCK 
PARTY, FESTIVAL, PICNIC, TAILGATE BLUE: WORDS BEFORE "SCHOOL" ELEMENTARY, 
GRADE, GRAMMAR, PRIMARY PURPLE: ASSOCIATED WITH TRICKS CON GAME, HALLOWEEN, 
HEARTS, MAGIC SHOW My rating: Hard My score: 1 mistake 

My one mistake today was putting ELEMENTARY instead of EASY in the group that 
became NOTHING TO IT!, something that wouldnt have happened if Id have looked 
at the board longer, rather than rushing in. 

I had the quote elementary, my dear Watson in my head, of course  although in 
this case it was far from, erm, elementary (and although it's actually a 
misquote anyway, and never appears in the original Sherlock Holmes stories). 

Instead, Elementary was part of the WORDS BEFORE SCHOOL group, together with 
the less common (depending on where you are) alternatives of PRIMARY, GRADE 
and GRAMMAR. All in all, no PICNIC. Yesterday's NYT Connections answers 
(Saturday, July 26, game #776) YELLOW: HERBS AND SPICES ANISE, DILL, MACE, 
SAGE GREEN: SHADES OF GREEN BOTTLE, HUNTER, KELLY, PEA BLUE: TRAVEL ON FOOT 
HIKE, MARCH, TRAMP, TREK PURPLE: STARTS OF EUROPEAN CAPITALS COPE, LUXE, 
SARA, WARS 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.
