GameNight 6!

After almost exactly six months (last semester was just too busy), this weekend we finally hosted another GameNight! There weren't any classes this week (because of the Chinese New Year holiday), so most residents had gone home to spend time with their families, but we sill had over 30 people attend.

"Soup's on!"

I made about 5 gallons of Sally's famous chili (both beef and vegetarian versions) and we served it with toasted baguette...

Not easy to find in Hong Kong (except perhaps on hot dogs)

...but, as it turns out, it can be eaten in a rice bowl with chopsticks

I also made four peanut butter pies for dessert

Soon after our meal was finished, the games began...

Settlers of Catan and PlayStation 3 gamers coexisting peacefully

Practicing our acting skills with Moods

Concluding the first of two Settlers rounds

A riotous (and very close) game of Pictionary

The action lasted about 6 hours (ending around 1AM), so we opted to clean up later and hit the sack immediately...

"Good night!"

(Note for posterity: An hour before GameNight began, the line supplying our kitchen sink with hot water burst, so things were a little more exciting than we anticipated. It happened right beside the shut-off valve, though, so we were able to quickly stop the flow. About 50 minutes later we had all the water cleaned up and our guests weren't impacted at all. Close one. ;>)
