Hello everyone! It’s Tuesday, February 25, 2025, That means it’s time for another round of Wordle. Today’s starting word comes from Kate’s 9026: "Probe." Let’s see where this journey takes us!

- The word has one vowel.
- There is a repeated letter.
- It is a common five-letter noun.
- It relates to household appliances and moisture removal.

Today's Wordle Answer:
First Guess: Probe
"Probe" is a solid starting word, offering two classic vowels (O and E) and some less common consonants. The result was interesting. The letter R is in the correct position, and E is in the word but in the wrong spot.
Not a bad way to start! Now, it's time to figure out where that E belongs.
Second Guess: Great
Unfortunately, this guess provided no new information. The E was still misplaced, and none of the other letters were in the answer. That meant it was time to rethink the strategy.
Third Guess: Cruel
This guess was incorrect, but it confirmed that E was indeed in the fourth position. Now I just needed to determine what goes in the middle.
Of course, I also took a moment to reminisce about Don’t Be Cruel by Elvis Presley. And yes, I know I’ll hear from you all if I got that wrong!
Fourth Guess: Fried
This guess revealed something crucial: I was wrong about the middle letter. I was not in the answer at all. Now I needed a new plan.
Fifth Guess: Dryer
"Dryer" immediately jumped out as a possibility. I locked it in, feeling strangely confident despite the chaotic path I took to get here.
And just like that, it was the correct answer!
Final Thoughts and Tomorrow’s Starting Word
This puzzle was a fun mix of logical deduction and overlooking an obvious option. Lesson of the day: never forget about Y.
Tomorrow’s starting word will be "Salet." I’ll admit, I blanked on its meaning for a moment, but it sounds like the name of a fancy chocolate brand, so I’m rolling with it.
Let me know in the comments if I was way off on that one. Thanks for playing along, and see you tomorrow for another Wordle adventure!
