    Today was the day Drakon came out of her box! It was my first attempt to get some of my friends hooked on a game that has been a lot of fun for me. To sweeten the deal I cooked lunch. The afternoon was rainy and overcast so it was a perfect day to be [...]

    Found this recipe in a cook book while waiting in line at the grocery store. The slaw on top of the pork created a nice contrast. The fresh wheat bun was soft and sweet like only bread can be. There was no barbeque sauce in the dish. The meat was cooked in a combination [...]

    I’m sorry to say this will be the last game day with the guys for a long time and can’t remember what we played or how to describe the game.  Regardless of the details being back with the guys was a blast. Playing the game is only half the fun because everyone brings something unique [...]
