So, you know and I know that this is a food blog, right?
Which means I post recipes for you all and then I cross my fingers and hope that you love the food and that your family and friends call you super cook of the universe.
That is my goal, plain and simple.
But today is Saturday and you might have some family and friends near by that want to hang out together and have a bit of fun. So that’s what I have for you. A recipe for fun!
My family and I have been playing Speed Scrabble a lot since the holidays, and it is really a ton of fun (and a little bit addicting 🙂 It’s kind of like playing Words With Friends, except you play with real friends who are living and breathing and sitting next to you. You don’t have to know a lot of big fancy words, simple three letter words work well. Which is lucky for me, my simple mind and my hideous spelling skills. The game is great for a small number of players or for a large group. Kids can participate and so can great grandmothers. All you need are a couple of boxes of Scrabble, a handful of players and a table. Pretty simple, right?
Because I love ya, and I love to pass on a fun thing or two to you wonderful readers…I picked up a couple of Scrabble Board Games for one of you!
To enter the giveaway leave me a comment telling me one of your favorite games. You know…like Monopoly, or Canasta Spin the Bottle or Leap Frog. You have until Thursday at midnight to enter. The winner will be announced on Friday morning bright and early with the sunshine.
Now….let me show you how to play!
The edible kind. 🙂
I like “42” and love any word games….seriously. My hubby thinks I'm crazy. Thanks for this….just might have to make a dash and get a couple of scrabbles. Would be nice if you could find garage sale ones…hmmmmm that's a thought.

The above game is almost exactly like the game BANANAGRAMS that is out. It is just the tiles in a banana cloth case. And it should be under $20.
We play Candyland and Dominoes with the kids. My husband and I enjoy playing Trains or just about any card game.
I love playing the game of things. But I'd really love to try scrabble
Love this and all speed games. lol. competitive? me?
I love Boggle and Scrabble!! We don't have either so this would be awesome!!
Our family loves UNO!!
My favorite card game is SPIT. Fast and simple.
This looks like more fun than the traditional Scrabble; it would go faster.
It was family tradition to be inducted in to the canasta club at age 8. I love playing with my aunties. My newest game obsession, if you will call it that, is Ticket to Ride.
my husband and I love to play double salitare (the faster the better) and scrunch with friends.
