It's time for some intense card playing. Derek taught Todd and I how to play Pinochle. (Since this is MY blog), I will tell you in a stunning comeback in the second game (after playing the first night without even being able call the trump or pick up the "keddle") I played an amazing series of hands to win a competive victory over Todd and Derek - who were struck with my bad luck from the previous night. Cards, pizza, and we had a good time.
