A-Z Challenge 2025 ~ O

This year I choose an easy way out. Each day I'm going to solve the Wordle of the day, using as starter a word beginning with the letter of the day. I post every day at 6 pm. my time (GMT +2. Dang you DST!)

As the alternative badge, as supplied by Lissa seems to suggest growing things I'll prefer those as starter words, and if at all possible, I'll avoid words containing the same letter more than once
.

I'll maybe add a few words about my chosen starter word if fancy takes me, else I'll just post the solution - or not in the case that I did not solve it.



O is for Opium.  Reeally? Yes really. Not because I am growing my own. The reason is that I like poppies, but no way am I going to use Poppy as a starter word tomorrow. Not with three P's. No way, not going to happen. Today the poppies will be represented by the one thing I do not harvest from them. I harvest their beauty, I harvest their shiny petals, always trying new ways to put this spendor into something lasting. I harvest poppyseeds for buns and bread.

As yesterday I was at a cinema watching Lord of th Rings I extended edition (four hours), I would have liked to use my Elven theme word OLVAR*) for today, but Wordle do not accept Elvish, sadly.

Oh, a Wordle. Here we go:
Phew!

*) Olvar - living things that do not move from place to place - as opposed to kelvar, living things that do move.

  1. I love Olvar as a word and a concept.

    1. I am not surprised. Entwives are Kelvar of course, but their "job" is anything olvar-related.

    1. I love doing the Wordle, normally I emphatically do not do it every day, as I hate streaks ;) but I'm going to make an exception this April.

  4. I don't like poppy seeds. Sometimes I remove them off breads.

    Olvar - I like that, like a tree.

    Have a lovely day.

    1. Too many poppy seeds is not nice, and too many is quite few ;) We use them to mark my lowFODMAP bread when we make both - in very moderate amounts.
