Speaking of Tools & Toys and lists, our 2013 Christmas Catalog is up and it’s pretty great.
Something we didn’t include in our list this time around is games. My current favorite board game is Dominion. Earlier this year I bought Dominion the card game, and was instantly hooked. I’ve since picked up the Prosperity, Seaside, and Guilds expansions. It’s great with just 2 players (Anna and I play it often) but is also great with 3 or 4 (we play when my sister and brother-in-law come over for dinner). More than 4 players the gameplay can begin to get a little slow, but it’s still fun.
