Words with Friends

Listen, I love my iPhone apps. I even included my newest obsession in my 12x12 for April. However I do have a Cautionary Tale because of said app:

Don't tell your uber smart friends that you enjoy playing the game "Words with Friends."
They will sucker you into playing with them and after 5 1/2 rounds they will be TROUNCING you with a score of 88 to 149. And suddenly you will realize you aren't as good at playing it as you once thought you were.

B.I.N.G.O.

thanks to a tip from mrs. jordan "she's more awesome than you could imagine" gooch we have a new past time. last week i spied her cool new b.i.n.g.o game gifted to her by her children. she graciously shared its origins.. anthropologie.



after calling our local stores and a couple out of state stores, i got serious. i immediately thought to myself- "where would this game be too uber cool"? southlake, tx of course. so i called and guess what- they had 3 of them. yahoo. i piled the kids in the car, along with my very skeptical husband, and we set off to pick it up. it was a drive and i was quickly reminded why we live where we live, but it was nice to see that the suburbs aren't all scary.


since we picked it up on monday we have had a great time with it. ted is a little young, but he likes spinning the cage, so that keeps him busy.

i'd tell you to pick one up yourself, but it might be tough. however, if you want a really cool retro bingo game and you are willing to make phone calls and possibly pay for shipping, it is well worth it. friend, trust me on this one.
