We all had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner at my daughter's house today. The Ham and turkey breast and all the accompaniments were delicious, as usual. My daughter is so lucky to have married a man who can cook. But what made the day particularly fun for me was that, after we ate, we took time to play a game. So often it seems that everyone has to rush off or we just sit around and talk for awhile. Nothing wrong with that but I do like to play games. So this year, when my son-in-law invited anyone who wanted to to bring a game along I decided to take him up on it. The game I chose was Quiddler, a word game that goes much faster than Scrabble. After eight rounds, my youngest granddaughter, age 18, was the big winner. She's the one who competed in several spelling bees in her youth so probably not too surprising. The really nice thing about this game is that there is generally plenty of time to talk while different players are contemplating their cards. We talked and we laughed and a good time was had by all. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
