All the other rooms are a party tonight
Jul. 15th, 2019 01:26 pmI had a very good weekend. On Saturday, I hosted a game night/dinner party. I've never been that into board games, but I've fallen in with a crowd that is and they really know how to pick them. This is our second game night of the summer and my first time hosting. We played Prolix, a word game, and Betrayal at Hill House, a choose-your-own-adventure mystery game. The box says it only takes an hour, but that's straight bullshit because we were playing for well over 2. I highly recommend it though as it was a lot of fun and is so incredibly customizable that there are at least 50 different potential outcomes.
One of the couples at the party is vegan and I was struck by the fact that I was the first host to actually make a meal they could eat. During our May game night, the hosting couple made fajitas with chicken and vegan couple had to bring their own entree. It's really not that hard to cook animal products free food. I just made crock pot chili and it was quite possibly the easiest thing I've ever made as it just involved opening cans and letting the slow cooker do all the work. Whatever. If anyone has any other good vegan crock pot offerings you can think of, I'm all ears for the next time.
I made the conscious decision not to participate in the AU exchange. That's right, it was deliberate. After looking at the other requests, I couldn't find anything I was particularly interested in writing. On the plus side, I have an idea I'm currently kicking around about amnesiac Bruce Wayne from the Superheavy arc and how he seemed blissfully unaware he had kids.
In case you missed it, I'm going to put another plug in for![[tumblr.com profile]](https://www.tumblr.com/favicon.ico)
