This is a wordlog for the SpellBinding puzzle (in which you construct words using the specified letters; each word must contain the anchor letter).

Pangrams: WHOLEWHEAT
This puzzle is defective, as WHOLE WHEAT is two words. The dictionary I inhereted still has some kinks - it had wholewheat and wholefood. I am leaving wholemeal even though it's somewhat British, for now.
HALLOW: to make holy; venerate
OWLET: a small or young owl. There is one in Central Park!
WALE: 1a streak or ridge made on the skin especially by the stroke of a whip : welt
1b : a narrow raised surface : ridge

3a : one of a series of even ribs in a fabric
3b : the texture especially of a fabric
4: a horizontal constructional member (as of timber or steel) used for bracing vertical members
