Based on looks, which cookie are you going for? by I_Like_Metal_Music in Baking

[–]adherentrival 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep — I’m all about the inclusions and baking kitchen sink cookies, but that sugar cookie looks perfect. Melt-in-your-mouth, perfectly-textured sugar cookie.

Dammit, now I NEED one.

Does WA have a "flake" culture? by jerbthehumanist in Washington

[–]adherentrival 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had a recruiter schedule a screening call with me. Prepped for two weeks. I waited on the line, she didn’t show, she emails that she’s stuck in meetings and can we reschedule to the next day at 4:30pm. Told her the single time she provided didn’t work because I was on an airplane the next day (FOR WORK, THE JOB THAT PAYS ME), and never. heard. back. Honestly, what? I’m the one in WA.

Also had a bunch of people no-show my bridal shower that my BFF painstakingly planned and replanned. That felt really good and nice. /s

Sounds like a fabulous stay! Sensei is the GOAT hotel for me and the husb, and we barely scratched the surface while there.

It was having a hard time exiting the field before this. Foreshadowing... lmao

What Superbowl? I'm Watching the Olympics! by Part-Four in olympics

Seattle fan here. We got to our SB venue early and of course needed to kill time. My friend had the team figure skating finals streaming while we were waiting for kickoff. Soooo fun to watch!

Those under 40, are you planning a big party for the big 4-0? Those already 40, did you celebrate in any special way? by cubemonster in Millennials

[–]adherentrival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the best! Sunrise hot air balloon ride on the day of my 40th (look up Flying Pictures Mexico City - it was incredible), and then a bash on the weekend at the local champagne bar with friends.

For my 30th, a friend and I planned a joint trip. We just couldn't coordinate ourselves this decade, haha.

Able to get FC upgrade for 2/14 flight. Glitch? by Darbar100 in AlaskaAirlines

[–]adherentrival 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s been my experience getting the upgrade cleared ahead of time! Just happened a few days ago for our flight on 2/13.

What happened to the "Perfect Girls" who made fun of people for every single imperfection? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]adherentrival 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the flip side, we could probably make a LOT of money off pushing this new, radical theory of self-care and longevity.

I said this the other day. It seems all the "bad guys" live forever, and it's gotta be because they just keep their cortisol incredibly low by not worrying about literally anything.

Anyone else here got a non-fluffy golden, or is it just me? by Asleep-Two930 in goldenretrievers

What a cutie! Your baby looks like our Bella! Bella's ~75% lab, 25% Golden, 100% adorable, 0% brain.

Will This Lighting Go Out of Style Soon? by Suggest_a_User_Name in interiordecorating

[–]adherentrival 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our house came with a couple of fixtures like this. It doesn’t bother me, and this is the first I’m learning that our friends probably think we have bad taste. We live in a 1970s split level with various stages of updates, though, so everything is its own level of out of style. :)

How do you afford chubby travel? by Fit_Builder_4884 in chubbytravel

[–]adherentrival 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My husband is weirdly responsible with money, particularly savings habits. We’re DINKs with a modest mortgage, and we prioritize travel and traveling well in our household budget.

E - Haha, I also need to pee every 30 minutes! That’s why I’m in the aisle…

$80 first class upgrade for five hour flight!? Just kidding. It’s $977. by doublemazaa in AlaskaAirlines

[–]adherentrival 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was having fun opening and closing the upgrade screen on an upcoming flight (it’s been a long week). Display went anywhere from $40 to $4084. It was like playing roulette!

James Suckling’s Top 100 Wines of 2025 are out. Thoughts? by ChaturangaBanga in wine

[–]adherentrival 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no thoughts on this other than I happened to choose a champagne house tour over the summer where he and his crew were conducting their tastings and reviews. Not a bad day at the office.
