[Image] Well, no responses to my first puzzle, but I will tell you what I thought of it. When I first looked at the puzzle I instantly focused on the “Brrr” part. So I knew that it had something to do with being cold, freezing, shivering etc. When you remove the three R’s and make it only one, you get the word bream. I had never heard of that word before...so I was unsuccessful in guessing this puzzle correctly and I was forced to look at the solution at the bottom of the page. The answer to “Brrream” was Cold Fish. I understood the cold part of it but not the fish! Here is the definition of bream:
Bream \ˈbrim, ˈbrēm\ noun 1: a bronze-colored European freshwater cyprinid fish (Abramis brama); broadly : any of various related fishes2 a: any of various marine fish (family Sparidae) related to the porgy —called also sea bream b: any of various freshwater sunfishes (Lepomis and related genera); especially : bluegill
Interesting...a new word to add to my vocabulary! Not only are these puzzles enjoyable but they are also educating. Well, not really but now I know what that word means. The next puzzle I am posting is a lot easier, doesn’t have unknown words. So, again I wish you luck and I hope to actually receive some comments this week!

It seems fun to guess the puzzle but I always end up making a wrong guess. Maybe I need to try harder.
