This is a gemlog for the SpellBinding puzzle, in which you construct words using the specified letters (each word must contain the anchor letter).
CAMP CAMPY CARP CHAMP CHAP CRAMP CRAMPY CRAP CRAPPY HAPPY HARP HARPY HYPHA MAYHAP PAMPA PAPA PAPACY PAPAYA PAPPY PARCH PARR PARRY PHARMACY PRAM PRAY RAMP
I thought we can all use an easy one. PHARMACY was the pangram.
HYPHA is not a city in Israel; it is a miniscule thread that make up a mycelium (the threaded mass) of a fungus. Good to know.
PARR is a young salmon actively feeding in fresh water.
PAMPA is another word for savanna or a praire.
I am HAPPY that CRAP and CRAPPY comes just in front of HAPPY. CRAPHAPPY (pronounced 'krafapy') is in fact the name for a second-hand store I always wanted to open to sell my hoarded stuff!
The rest of the words are pretty ordinary. HARPY is a terrible half-woman half-bird, a HARP is of course a musical instrument while to HARP is to play it (or complain with no end).
