those are some great ideas, JJ. How about playing cards? My husband's family (they live in PA) get together for card night. They set up tables (yes, plural) for Pinochile (spelling is not right - P-knuckle). They would bring the whole family together and have a half dozen card tables with matches going. They take their card playing seriously. [Smile]

You can't eat much when your hands are busy with cards.
