Didn't see the blue group, and never heard of The Haunting but guessed right.

Puzzle #678




God has heard my soul.
With two mistakes to spare

Spoken Presentation
Adjective for a desert
Three-digit numbers
Dog breeds

The dogs threw me off because I've never heard of (a bulldog, I'm guessing) being called a "bully" but one of my mistakes was Lab, Chow, Golden, Hot (as in hot dog) and it was one away, so I knew I was on the right track once I hit the desert one
Got today's by luck. I immediately saw tie-dyeing and glimpse but had to brute force the other two.

First two were fast, but took a bit to put together ____hop____ . I did not get the last one before the reveal.

It's tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.

This made me curious enough to try it and....am I missing something? It really wasn't hard.
The first clue was orange, so I guessed fruit, which was right. Even if I guessed color instead, then I would've just gotten it on the 2nd guess.

No. The game takes like 3 sec to play. It's genius. Weekend ones are harder as usual, but even then it's like 30 sec max.

This is me most days. I have to be in the right mindset to play. Sometimes I look at it and I immediately get frustrated and leave lol
I usually do it in the morning as a way to warm my brain up lol. But yeah it can be very frustrating, especially when like two of the categories are super American.

I almost put iceberg in the white category but swapped it at the last second. I've never heard of butter lettuce . I'm also not aware of any idioms surrounding pitchers and ears but I guess they do literally have them...?
Change is weird.
For the last one: it refers to drink pitchers and their ear-like handles

That makes more sense. I guess.

Got this one with no mistakes. It helped that I was shopping for lettuce last night and noticed the bag of butter lettuce.

This makes more sense but baseball pitchers have ears too...

This one was tough. Regarding the blues... Summertime and Autumn Leaves are jazz standards. Unforgettable is at like... every old person's wedding ever. I didn't actually know Witchcraft but looking at the options I made an educated guess that that was the most likely to be one.

I actually got what blue was going for in a general sense, but I didn't know the fourth (WITCHCRAFT) .

I didn't know the blues either, though I thought they sounded like songs in musicals
