The answers to today's Strands, game #231, are OTTOMAN RECLINER TABLE SOFA FIREPLACE SHELF SPANGRAM: LIVING ROOM My rating: Easy My score: Perfect

Today's Strands gave me a good reminder not to jump to conclusions, which I guess is a good lesson for life in general. The theme clue of 'Make yourself at home' had already suggested relaxing in some way, so when I spotted
OTTOMAN followed by RECLINER I was sure that 'things you sit on' would be the answer. When I followed up with TABLE I was slightly confused but I figured maybe there was such thing as a table chair, and I just didn't know the term. And then I got SOFA and my hunch seemed all but confirmed.

At that point, however, I stalled. I couldn't find any more words that worked and couldn't see what the spangram could be. So I had another look and tried to think less literally. And there before me, obvious for all to see, was the spangram: LIVINGROOM. Everything made sense now, and I was able to add FIREPLACE and SHELF to complete the set.
