For game 2, we beat Fourplay, two games out of three.
Evenly matched, so the game went long.
That’s okay, we like those guys.

Food theme: Four or more ingredients.
Bahn Mi Meatball Awesomeness

Team Joanie really stepped it up, with amazing meatballs, sandwiches, salads, dips, skewers, pizzas and more meatballs.
And then Paulito (and all our team’s May birthdays) had a birthday celebration with the best carrot cake ever.

Melissa even decorated with heirloom carrots.

Paul's gorgeous cake

Record so far:
5 wins
1 loss

We’ll be playing the Holy Rollers on court 7.

Food theme?
“By the rules.”

Inspired by this year’s updated rule book, let’s follow a recipe from beginning to end.
No matter what.

I can’t wait to see what you bring.

To wit
Play should not be delayed by excessive measuring, conferencing or missions of personal convenience during a game, nor by extended breaks between games; playing is expected to be continuous, without meal or practice breaks between games.

Ha!

Taking any and all potluck theme ideas for the team.
I’m here to make YOU happy.

(Next game is on court six, we’re playing Four Play)
