[why do i need a title anyway?]

On Tuesday night Alison and Fiona and I went bowling with Henry and Alyson. I hadn't been 10-pin bowling since we visited family in Holland when I was six, so I wasn't sure what to expect. But I wasn't as bad at it as I usually am at 5-pin. Unless it was the company. We make a loud group, I have to say :op . It's probably a good thing the bowling alley wasn't crowded.
I really enjoyed it, maybe because it's easier to knock over more pins with a larger ball. We all had to try one round "granny bowl", backwards, between the legs, which proved entertaining. I choose not to remember who won the first game, but in the second game Fiona, Henry and I joined forces to defeat the two Ali/Alysons. They were both pretty good. And once Fiona started with her left hand instead of right, she was too. With combined scores, we beat Alison and Alyson. :-D
Afterwards we went to Boston Pizza, where we alternately entertained and traumatized the staff. Oh, btw, anything with chocolate in it that you can get at Boston Pizza is scrumptious (coming from me, ha -- any chocolate is delicious, some in varying degrees). Alyson and Alison made a couple of sculptures on the big triangular dessert plates when they were clean. One was a birthday cake, for which they used napkins, torn up colouring pages, and straws, with a crayon for a candle. I think our waitress (Jenna) had a few laughs that evening.
