Game Night at Lollipop's!





So for over a year now the hub and I have been going to my friend's game night. The evenings are always on a Friday Night and usually occur once every other month. All of the invitees are m friend's peeps from work whom I have gotten to know over the years at various events. Since we have joined the group all of the game nights have been at the same house. They decided to shake it up a bit so I offered up our house as the July Game Night location. Typically whoever hosts the game night provides the meat and then everyone else brings a dish to pass. It's all coordinated so that we have appetizers, drinks, meal and dessert. I have to say that everyone did a good job this time around as we were all completely stuffed! So this past Friday we got the house in shape for our night. I was stressing over what game we should play but it seems I need not worry because we always end up playing the same game which is Catch Phrase. Although this time we did convince everyone to sneek in a few games of Scattagories. Both games are pretty fun but the new guy (Apparently a new co-worker has made a good impression so he and his date were introduced into the group) just didn't seem to get how the game worked. Poor guy! Not only were new people cool but they brought the best baklava!! And when I say best I mean it was the best baklava I have ever tasted! The night was fun as usually but longer than normal. You know you have thrown a good party when you have empty bottles of liquor and half the party had to sleep over at your house!

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
