Catch up – hah!
We’ve played Apples to Apples a few times with friends (we got the game for Christmas – yay!).
Below are some of the pictures.

Rufus played most inappropriately
We went over to play Family Business with Rufus today.
Rufus won the first game, then Marc won the second. This led to Rufus showing us his Score Board in the kitchen.
I’ll leave it to him to explain the scoring system.

Rufus came by for dinner (white bean chicken chili) and Carcasonne (he won both games).
Then we found the kittens on the bed.
Of course, they were lying right where they’d have to in order to maximize Folly’s discomfort.

…so we’re experimenting with some homemade insulation for our windows. I’ve done one of the two windows in the kitchen so far. We only bought a small package of bubble wrap, so we could see how well it worked. When we can, we’ll pick up a larger package and do the other windows in the [...]
…rather obsessed with The Sims 3 (something Milo bought when it first came out). It means late nights watching my Sims do things like unclog drains and hold hands.
At least there’s no monthly fee, right?
We taught Trevor how to play Uno last night. Marc taught me how to annoy people by saying “Uno!” randomly when you don’t really have Uno. I learned too well. Moira, Marc and I won; Trevor was catching on by the end of the rounds (we had one never-ending hand, wherein everyone seemed to build [...]
Tonight we’re going to try playing Settlers of Catan. Marc and I originally bought this game after seeing it debut (in German) at DragonCon one year. I just loved it! We played in a group along with the fellow who wrote the English version instructions (he told me during the weekend that he wished [...]
They may be in our future! Marc asked me if I knew how to make tortillas, or maybe just if I knew where to find a good recipe, and it was just the opening I needed to share a recipe I’d recently bookmarked (for him). The Fresh Loaf posted a pictorial tutorial on how to [...]
We held our regular game night last night, but with a birthday twist. Marc made an extra special taco bar (with all the toppings I can ever imagine wanting, including fresh bacon!), followed by an uber-Sundae bar. Oh, yum!
As always, we gamed. Last night, having only just discovered how much we love Cranium last [...]
…first things first: I promise to blog more often. This last week was an anomoly. Somehow I let all seven days slip by without even the thought of an update. I enjoy coming here every day or two and sharing what’s new, what I’ve seen and enjoyed in the last week, and suchlike.
So let’s [...]
