Bunko Baby!

I've decided to try something different with our young women's group at church - Bunko. In the past we have just scheduled a meal and chatting time. This works for a few months but then everyone starts having excuses to not join in the fun. So I thought that maybe a different approach was needed. We are going to be playing the famous Bunko tonight at my house. After asking 11 other girls to join, I think I am the only one that has ever played Bunko before so we will be taking it slow tonight. Bunko is such a fun game. I understand why (as the box says) "it is the game that is sweeping the nation." Several years ago I substituted for the Bunko group at the high school. Now that is a fun group of women. That was my first introduction to the game. I haven't subbed for them in a long time so that's what gave me the idea for tonight. I'm cooking (well Lauren is going to come help me) chicken strips, mashed potatoes, gravy, biscuits and oatmeal cake. Now I do realize that I am failing my home economics teacher from high school and am having a very white meal, but it is one of my favorite meals to cook and to eat (although quite fattening I'm sure). So hopefully tonight goes well and we can have a new fun get-together that will keep everyone coming.
