Pea - Nah - Call

Actually no... it'd be more like PEE-KNUCKLE .
If you've never heard of the game Pinochle,
fear not, you are totally normal .
It's not a very well known game , however
it is a fun game once you learn all it's ways .

Getting to know those rules is the hard part tho ,
there aren't that many but for some it may take

years to perfect this game . Basically everyone
[or the 4 people playing, two teams]
get dealt 20 cards each, none are left in a pile .
You must play to win each hand . [as in - you throw
down 4 cards and you want to win each round .]
There is trump, runs, marraiges, pinochles ..
and did I mention there are only Aces, Ten's, Kings,
Queen's, and Jack's in that specific order ..

We played tonight .
Chelsea, Mom, Dad and myself .
So fun, two pro's and two not so pro's .
Very balanced.. still good games tho .







I actually wanted to say how wonderful it is to have a
friend that doesn't mind coming over and hanging out
at my house playing cards with my parents .
I'm tired of people who constantly have to be OUT doing
something . I can't keep up with that..
Don't get me wrong, I love to go out and do stuff . Just not
at all times ! So it is nice to have people who share my
feelings on that sort of thing .

  1. AHHHHH! QUADRUPLE MARRIAGE! I'm so glad I have a friend who lets me come over and play cards with her and her parents...I am still working on my poetry portfolio! Sometimes I am stricken with perfectionism at the wrong moments. Love that last picture a lot, and your parents are adorable.
