Anyone else playing letter boxed? I enjoy playing and trying to solve the puzzle using the least number of words possible.

My solution for today was:

There are many possible answers. That's why I'm curious to hear how other people solved the puzzle.

Did anyone solve in under four words today?

My solution:
Hidden: 

openly, yank, kitchen

I've tried it. I'm not good at it. But because it sounds like today's is easier, ill try again.
If I find a solution, I'll post

Depends on the letters some letters are harder so I’ll get it in like six or five but so it’s easier I try to think of Letters, but I’m so tired half of the time I can’t think of long words so I can only think of bunch of short words.

I find the "solve in under 6" are the easiest. I usually solve those with 2 or 3 words.

Using long words os the easiest way to use a lot of letters. Once I find a good word, I see if I can connect another word either before or after. If before, I delete and add the new word first.

I forgot my second word (deleted by mistake so used that word. Third word that’s the only word I can think of for starting with that letter.)
