I wonder if anyone reading this is able to enlighten me? It sounds great.<BR/>I grew up in a game-playing-family of nine and now have my own family of six, who also love games - all sorts so very hard to pick a favourite! At the moment it moves between Dutch Blitz - awesome and very fast card game -especially with 6 or more playing! - and Scotland Yard (very fun detective game).<BR/>I would love to win this book, by the way.

Once, I was told I wasn't rolling the dice quick enough. Mind you, some of these women could be my mother!

We have a family tradition of playing games on New Year's eve and the winner of every game draws a # for a prize. There are prizes wrapped in tissue paper all over the house -last year we had 189! The prizes range from a packages of pencils or gum to a set of shelves - generally things my mom has picked up on clearance throughout the year. Now we all contribute including my 8 year old who wraps things from her own room because they never want it to end! After all the prizes are won, we gather together and show everything we won and then do a swap. It is so much fun!<BR/><BR/>Bunko Babes sounds like a great book.hippmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10158666745341266240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2968062422345887738.post-26815818676977345912008-03-28T08:14:00.000-05:002008-03-28T08:14:00.000-05:00We were also introduced to Apples to Apples over t...We were also introduced to Apples to Apples over the holidays, and LOVE it! We have both the regular & jr editions, and enjoy playing it with both adults and children. My family has all moved to Wisconsin which has been especially hard for my game loving sister and I. We make up for it by playing online games together, and our favorite one is Literati (a word game).Lora Leasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15153555405302611096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2968062422345887738.post-12517699105047263642008-03-28T08:04:00.000-05:002008-03-28T08:04:00.000-05:00I would love to be entered in the drawing for this...I would love to be entered in the drawing for this book.
