golden red deliciousness

One of my favorite games is Apples to Apples. It's so good, just like the fruit after which the game is named. It's perfect because it doesn't take hours and it certainly is not brain-numbing.

Last weekend, one round of Apples to Apples put all previous games to shame. It was a total power play, and awaiting the final decision was more tense than awaiting Nadia Comaneci's uneven bar routing score in Montreal in 1976 (which was a 10 btw).

I'm so thankful I wasn't personally faced with this difficult decision. The 12 people actually in the room were on the edge of their seats and I'm almost certain all of Whistler Village stopped and sweated in anticipation. The pic says it all and in the end, the right decision was made.
