We alternate hosting a game day with my son and his wife. All board games till we were at their house last time and it was Mario Cart. Racing games have never been my strong point though I always admire the tracks.

Hosts pick the game and offer snacks. For some reason we haven’t picked one yet but will by the time you read this, as I write the night before.

I can say that some games have been banned, usually because of random rule changes by a member of the party.

Pictionary

Settlers of Cataan

Spy Alley

Sorry

Clue, perhaps, there was some hinkiness last time.

Ha Pandemic which we never really got to, but now nobody could tolerate it.

Can’t get anyone to play Betrayal At House on the Hill because it’s mean for one of the players to betray the others.

Could be more.

On the plus side, there will be cake:

Homemade Mac and Cheese, Lil’ Smokies in BBQ sauce, Hot Queso and Tostitos, Rice Krispy Treats, Cheese and Crackers, pumpkin pie, green grapes. Gotta snack to play.
