Wide outstretched arms?? How about Open Arms? That was my guess! I think I like it better as words commonly used. You know, as in ”They were welcomed with open arms”. I think I should get at least half a chili dog! 🤣 ETA - roxsolid - sidearms means pistols or guns to me - but, the word does fit the wuzzle.

@murraysmom Zone 6a OH I feel the same as you do about these challenging Sunday Brain Game puzzles! I surprise myself when I have an idea of a solution but I don’t often have those ideas. Heck, sometimes I have trouble understanding the solutions that Jasdip so cleverly presents in her cryptic sentences.

I think it’s so funny that I usually miss the obvious with these puzzles - because, IRL I am usually pretty sharp. I didn’t get this one either, Like murraysmom I usually just wait around for Jasdip’s answer - which I might add I usually need a bit of spelling out to understand too. murraysmom and I think alike on these puzzles - as well as on some other topics here on KT! 😁

@murraysmom Zone 6a OH - No, Bran is not the answer - it’s Raisin Bran! The ”clue” is the raised N. That was the idea that ”floated” up to me after mulling it over most of my day. @roxsolid - my ’floated up’ comment could have been a hint but totally unintentional on my part. Regarding @foodonastump ’not a hint’ to floral but just ”state the possibility that she might not be familiar with it.” he was referring to Kellogg’s Sultana bran cereal - it’s what UK & Australia eat instead of Raisin Bran that US/Canada has. I had to look that point up. I had never seen the Will Shat commercial for Raisin Bran. That’s why I like these puzzles - I learn so many new things! Really! 😁
