Happy Saturday morning my friends! My newspaper doesn’t print a Saturday edition but they do print the puzzle and include it in the Friday copy. It’s the best day of the week because I get to do two Jumble puzzles on the same day! I had some difficulty with OUTDO mostly because it didn’t look right to me. I tried to find another word but decided to give up and moved on to the cartoon with what I had. I managed to get the solution rather quickly and found AROUND first.
With Christmas right around the corner, I thought I would include the link to the OFFICIAL Jumble coffee mug that is available for purchase. This link was given to me by Jumble artist Jeff Knurek and I purchased one back in August. I decided on the large mug and I look forward to using it every morning while doing my favorite puzzle. If you decide to get one, be sure to let everyone know by leaving a comment. Have a wonderful Saturday and I’ll see you tomorrow. 😀☕️

Had the puzzle solved before unjumbling the words. Iguana tripped me up for a bit. It is always interesting how once solved , seemingly difficult words are actually quite straightforward. Often it only takes the time for a trip to the kitchen for a coffee for the word to jump out.
Good afternoon, John. When I run into a difficult word and just can’t figure it out, I put the puzzle away and come back to it in a half hour or so and it usually jumps right out at me. It sure is funny how it works. See you tomorrow! 😀
This is my 3rd day of looking at the words first, figuring them out without peeking at the cartoon, and appreciating the skill of our master Jumbler. Then on to the cartoon to enjoy the fact that the answer is well illustrated with another ride and ferris wheel in the background. I LOVE this method. ( Of course, I will keep the method of cartoon first in my bag of tricks for when I need it.)
I just had to thank you again for sharing this method with us, but don’t answer; just stay well and have a wonderful weekend.
It’s always so nice to hear from you, Lelia! I hope you have a terrific weekend yourself. I have big plans of setting up the Christmas tree and finish decorating the house. Be well! 😉
