Hand-crafted Ancient and Modern Board Games
Okay, so they may not fit neatly into a stocking ...
Mr. Lloyd makes both original board games, such as Turncoat and Kings, and ancient favorites, such as Hnefetafl (Norse), Latrunculi (Roman), and Senet (Egyptian). Yeah, try pronouncing them while eating peanut butter. Fun times!
You can’t beat the prices either. Most of the games are under $20 (US).

Expectant mother, Lizabetta Cordona Espero of Majorca, Spain has a very difficult decision to make. With a stroke of a pen, she could be setting up her family for life. She could also be setting up her unborn son for a life of heavy expectations as the next big young thing in English football. It […]
The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) recently reported that the annual cost of freedom, which it has been estimating since 1945, reached a record high of $15.97 per person on September 31st, 2011. The NBER also reported that there are no signs of this cost lowering or plateauing in the near future. Recent projections […]
After years of complaining bitterly to any Facebook executive that would listen, Brooke Nordstrom is getting her wish. In a move that will take effect on October 1st, 2011, Facebook will prevent users from uploading super-close-up head-shots of themselves as their profile picture. For years, lazy users have been uploading distorted and distasteful extreme close-ups […]
As more and more former supporters decide to break up with him, President Obama has taken to spouting cliches. In his latest address, hoping to calm fears of a deep recession as well as bolster his campaign coffers, the President explained that his lack of success in delivering campaign promises and his faltering leadership over […]
You know how sometimes, in order to be politically correct and avoid being accused of racial profiling airport security will inexplicably pull some elderly white lady out of the line and do a secondary search and mini-interrogation? Well, in order to respond to criticism over the lack of diversity in recent casting of comic-book-inspired movies, […]
So a few months ago (2 maybe?), I once again purchased a foundation, thinking I was going to be continuing my search for another foundation within a few weeks. I didn’t have high hopes for it, but the results totally blew me away! I am talking about Lancome’s Teint Idole Ultra Foundation. They also have […]
Laura Mercier’s Silk Creme Foundation has sadly not won my love. It applied beautifully, my eczema wasn’t even noticeable (it even covered better than the foundation I had that was *made* for eczema!), but it made me ORANGE. So it’s going back. Next foundation to try: Shiseido’s The Makeup Lifting Foundation! *SIGH* Good news, though. […]
So I gave the Max Factor Pan-Stik a try, and this is my review: First, this is a full-coverage foundation, so it’ll cover any redness/acne you have on your skin, which is a plus for me and my eczema! The foundation also has an old lady smell to it. However, you can’t smell it once […]
This is so sad…Max Factor has been around FOREVER. 😦 I was going to go foundation hunting this weekend, and Max Factor was first on my list of things to try. Boo. 😦 I’m looking up reviews on cheap makeup (Revlon, Maybelline, Cover Girl, etc.). None of them seem combination-skin-friendly! @#$#@$^@! (Imagine a 30 second […]
I had intended to do a thorough review of Cover FX’s Total Coverage Creme Foundation and Mineral Foundation, but all along the way I had a saboteur waiting in the wings for the opportunity to pounce and destroy every chance at happiness I might have found with flawless-looking skin.
Hello there! I just wanted to thank you for the shout-out! I greatly appreciate the mention.
Just as a note in reference to the caption, these games usually fit quite well into a stocking: most of the boards are made of cloth and fold up easily. 🙂
