          Miss Meow will have to decline box nomming due to lack of tooths. She would however accept a box sitting invitation.

    Party is over and I bought way too much food and soft drink, but it won’t go to waste around here I guess. Miniest’s friends are all funny and nice little girls with nice mums, but I didn’t get a chance to talk to them much.

    Miniest’s non birthday party today. She wanted a get together with her besties rather than a full on party. So we’re hoping to snag a spot at the local “good” park (we live closest to the “shit” park) and I’m providing plenty of cold drinks and snacks. Got to make brownies and do some quick shopping. Off I go!

    Heading down the bellarine today for the break. Gonna start building a pizza oven out of the heaps of sandstone down there. I have no idea what I’m doing but it seems like a good idea.

      Sandstone can explode if exposed to fire, so be cautious about where you use it. Should be fine as a support, just not right against where the fire goes.

    Anybody have the “board game stash cupboard” ? I counted around 30 board games and card games and half dozen puzzles. I think my favourites are Settlers of Catan and Risk, but the one game that everyone comes back to is UNO for some reason.

    I think it’s more fun in a large group gathering that’s more casual.

        We have cards against but it loses its lustre when you get used to the card combinations so the replay value goes right down.

        For our UNO games, cheating is kind of encouraged, so some of the fun is trying to catch someone out.

      Yeeeess. Just the classics - chess, backgammon, cribbage, mahjong and ordinary cards. Oh, and Squatter (inherited from siblings - dates back to the 1970s). Zillions of jigsaws as I like doing these and have good lighting over the jigsaw table so can be done after dark.

      We’ve got lots of games like various Uno ones, Throw Throw Avocado, Throw Throw Burrito, Exploding Kittens, What Do You Meme, the hit each other with fake swords one and stuff like that. I like good old fashioned monopoly but nobody else is interested. There’s a heap I haven’t looked at in ages, I probably should.

      Loaded baked potatoes would be even cheaper. Get the washed kind (preferably floury) and microwave them skin on to cook. Then smash open, load them up, and bake to get everything hot and crispy/melted
