Spoiler: Who is that?

Since I hadn't heard of Samin Nosrat...

"She is the author of the James Beard Award–winning, New York Times Bestselling cookbook Salt Fat Acid Heat and host of a Netflix docu-series of the same name.

Spoiler

I didn't know who that was but I've heard of the cookbook and those 4 things being mentioned together

What is elevator pitch?

It’s a very short speech to sell someone on a new idea. Imagine you have two minutes in an elevator with your bosses boss to pitch them a new idea.

Purples totally made sense but I didn't think of it.

I had purle early but couldn't find #4. It took me a while to see ROWS. Crazy game - sometimes you just have to stare at it and it comes.

 

[NDallasRuss]

Kind of a slow start for me.

Worst performance in history for me today. Got ZERO!!

"One away" on the first 3 guesses followed by the dreaded "Next time."

LOL. Not buying a lottery ticket today
