Games to Make You Forget it's Christmas

Hey all....Merry Happy to each of you!! Well wishes to all and to all some great games!!

I finally beat Abundante! It was a few weeks ago, but I remember the moment as if it were...a few weeks ago ;) Really, what a challenging game. I was willing, at one point, to sacrifice a chicken on my keyboard to pass level 19-3(Ms.Weatherby)...oy, I say. It's a doozy. But, alas, I did, and there was much rejoicing!!

Lately it's been all about the word games for me. Scrabble Blast is super fun. There are three game types: one bag, action, and puzzle. One bag is...one bag of tiles. I've only emptied the entire board a few times (997 high score). Action is a board that randomly drops bombs into tiles you have to use before they reach the bottom (2435 high score). Puzzle, my favorite, drops bombs into tiles that you have to use, but there's a catch. In the tile is a number, and the word you create with that bomb tile has to be at least that many letters long. Not so hard when they want 3 and 4 letter words...but when they start asking for 7 letter words...fun times(4544 high score)

I've been playing more games than I should lately...I still have two quilts to finish before Christmas...and here I sit gabbing about them and not working on them...so goes the life of a procrastinator ;)

Ok, have a great season, all of you, and remember QUE is a word!!
