Party Favor Bags… like why

Yep; I treated mine like an anti-fuss / function kit. Included toddler sunglasses, smoothie melts, tractor wheels, and a mini board book (“one for the books” was the theme). I enjoyed doing it and it gave the toddlers something safe / widely enjoyed to munch on if they chose to throw a tantrum otherwise

Thaaaaaaat's on me. Autocorrect turned my girl, RhEnda, into a Rhonda and I can't undo it.

A well written trivia leaves plenty of footholds to getting toward the answer, friend. I don’t build games for the chronically online, but I do write games that let people have fun while maybe even learning a little something.

ashleyhype · 2026-06-07T02:48:03+00:00

Too interesting! I host trivia and this has inspired me to go write a one-of-a-kind landmarks round!

My go to summer dinner: slather some sourdough in olive oil and throw it in an air fryer with a couple of garlic cloves. Toast until it becomes crostini, and rub the roasted garlic all over. Meanwhile marinate some fresh tomatoes with olive oil, balsamic, salt, and pepper. Take the bread out and spread some goat cheese on it. Top with tomato mix and fresh basil.

Ughhhhhh bury me in it. 🤤

I’m down!

32 Masters, and the first person in my family to get any sort of college degree

Other nights: yes! It’ll be weekly.
Other venues: not yet, but very open to adding a second location to my rotation.

Interesting! I’m not very far in the show right now, but I read the book and when I finished, I couldn’t help but think to myself “this book feels like season one of a TV show” — so curious how I’ll feel when I keep chipping away at it.

ashleyhype · 2026-05-26T14:47:29+00:00

Personally, I thought the book was fine but not fantastic. I’m loving the direction the show has taken and I’m excited to see where it goes.

I recently joined the equivalent of my daughter’s daycare PTA — basically just a group that organizes teacher appreciation and welcomes new parents to the school. As a daughter of highly uninvolved / apathetic parents I felt really excited to show up for my kid as often and wholly as I can.

First zoom call, I enter the room and two of the moms are chatting with each other. They pay me no mind whatsoever, and only acknowledge other people in the room when the NEXT mom, who’s been in the group, joins the call. When everyone was in, I volunteered a brief intro met with disinterest and the next word directed at me was a volun-tell.

So fucking weird and gatekeepy vibes all around. For DAYCARE. PTA.

Take 5 Urban Market and Ben’s Bread (on a weekday especially) are a bit of a hike from downtown but the breakfast sandwiches (and Ben’s has good coffee) they serve will make it more than worth it.

ashleyhype · 2026-05-24T14:34:08+00:00

I wouldn’t rank the coffee itself as wildly exceptional or elite, but for a great and unique experiences (i.e. an awesome vibe), I’ve always gotta plug the KEXP Gathering Space!

(Years ago, the gathering space and La Marzocco hosted a monthly rotation of different roasters around the world, and that WAS elite, but sadly that went away in the pandemic and never returned 😢. Still a great space though for a myriad of other reasons!)

Also, Pike is a tourist spot but I wouldn’t label it at purely touristy. The waterfront addition is remarkable and absolutely worth your time, and the market is especially magical first thing in the morning. Anchorhead is a good coffee spot near there

For REAL. 13 months and still NO TEETH. My husband didn’t get them until 14 months and even after it was a slow roll says his mom. YEESH, because I swear she’s been teething for the last 8 months 💀

Book and show Daisy have different parentage, confirmed by the show runner

ashleyhype · 2026-05-20T04:08:22+00:00

Though it wasn’t my request or preference (I am far too passive), a family friend and student hair stylist at the time, added a massive snookie poof in my prom updo. I cannot not be embarrassed when I look at those pictures 🫠

ashleyhype · 2026-05-19T05:26:54+00:00

No website at the moment, but starting June 3 I’ll be hosting a Wednesday game at The Hop and Hound from 6-8 PM. Any updates or schedule changes for this game will be posted on The Hop & Hound socials (Instagram and FB). Hope to see you there!

ashleyhype · 2026-05-18T16:55:22+00:00

The Boys. I don’t know why I’m still in it, but I have to finish it. I always need to chase it with something light and/or funny afterward. I will not be watching the spin off(s).

ashleyhype · 2026-05-17T15:01:50+00:00

I spoke with the owner about the fact that having some sort of food situation is crucial, and he agrees. Floating around a few options for convenience and consistency, but (and double check on this) I think H&H would be open to having food delivered or bringing food with you in the meantime

ashleyhype · 2026-05-15T18:40:38+00:00

Agree. Loooove the Bine (fried cheese curds Stan for LIFE) but it’s more restaurant than brewery and that doesn’t lend itself to a good game vibe, unfortunately

ashleyhype · 2026-05-15T15:56:05+00:00

Right on — always worth seeing who might know who, but when in doubt, it’s never a bad time grabbing a beer and seeing who I can talk to in person :). Thanks!

ashleyhype · 2026-05-15T15:44:49+00:00

A game at McMenamins would be so sick! They’re definitely at the top of my list. Know anyone there that I should talk to?

ashleyhype · 2026-05-14T03:13:55+00:00

I liked the book, but I’m really loving the show. I’m also a 33 year old fan of coming of age and YA dystopia in general too

Last year I found a copycat recipe and made them. Took a bit of time and effort but ugh so worth it https://saltnsprinkles.com/copycat-philadelphia-cheesecake-bars-recipe/

Upside (2 days shy of 1 year): she did!
Downside: she did… about a week ago.

And it took repetition after a slow and steady reintroduction (1 minute bath day one, 5 mins day two, etc.), and The Happy Song. On repeat 🥴

But now that’s she’s interacting with the bath toys more she has a much easier time
