Today’s New York Times Spelling Bee letters:
C, H, K, O, P, T, and center I (all words must include I).

Silly little dictionary! Don’t you know piki can’t possibly be a word if the New York Times says it ain’t?

My Two Cents
Today I was inspired to “double dip”, in a manner of speaking. As I was researching the word piki, and finding out more about this traditional bread, I bumped into a video made by Victoria Spencer and Marlene Sekaquaptewa that explains how to make piki. So I decided to investigate about these two creators. It turns out Ms. Sekaquaptewa, who was Hopi, passed away last summer from Covid-19.
