Found rush first which did nothing for me. Then I found queen which made realize what the theme actually was. Still took a few to get all of them since I haven't even heard of some those.

Saw "Lettuce" backwards across the top row and instantly knew what the spangram would be.

I love that the placement of the words actually kind of looks like a sandwich.

Interesting how lettuce spans even though it's not the spangram. Don't think that's happened before.

Okay that one was actually easy for me once I found a word. The hint wasn't clicking at all, so I was just trying random words I found. Once I found lettuce and it was actually right, I got that they meant club sandwich lol.

Accidentally hovered over someone's spoiler tag and saw lettuce so it impossible not to know what it was about. Hate when I do that. Always do it whenever I get distracted and then come back to the tab and instinctively go to the spoiler text forgetting what the topic was about or that I haven't solved the puzzle yet lol. Took me 30 seconds to get everything.

After getting the first one I figured the theme, but couldn't think of the associated pair.. I found peace first and was looking for stuff like "conflict" or "strife" lol.

After finding a second word, something just clicked and the rest was easy. This one was pretty fun.

They're words that go together. Peace and quiet, smoke and mirrors, etc.

Cute.

Not quite as clean as the babies and adults one though.

By chance, the first two words I found were peace and quiet. I would have been stumped for much longer if I didn't get that pair up front.

Ohh. Thank you. I was just finding words randomly after I used a hint, but I wasn't seeing a connection at all lol.

I normally try to get the spangram first, but there was no way that was happening for this one. I didn't even make the connection until several words in. I was just trying words randomly and hoping they worked before that point.

I don't think I've ever seen one cross back over itself like "Telephone" did. I didn't think they were allowed to do that.

The funny thing is, the crossover could have easily been avoided just by swapping the P and H around.
