.. Yellow group — blunder (BOO-BOO, FLUB, GAFFE, GOOF) Green group — flowers (DAISY, JASMIE, PETUNIA, POPPY) Blue group — things bees do (BUZZ, DANCE, POLLINATE, STING) Purple group — first names of Yankees legends (BABE, LOU, MICKEY, YOGI) My first perfect game in a couple of days brings my overall streak up to 24 wins.
Not too difficult a game today. I figured out the blues first thanks to POLLINATE, then FLUB and BOO-BOO opened the door for the yellows. The greens then seemed straightforward enough, which was good because I would never have figured out the purple group (I'm very much not a baseball guy).
In hindsight, I managed to avoid the YOGI and BOO-BOO red herring quite deftly. There was nothing to do with Disney, either. That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers.

I don't think I've recommended a classical piece in this column before, but the blue group brought to mind the beautiful but somewhat stressful "Flight of the Bumblebees".
