Game Two, Vino Pallino, 3-0

April 24, 2009 By: helenjane Category: Game Updates

I wasn’t at the game, instead, I suffered at home with the death plague.

Those who were at the game told me that Vino Pallino crumbled in the face of our mad skillz. More accurately, Vino Pallino crumbled in the face of Kevin Bersofsky’s mad skillz.

Casinos abound, first with James and Caffo, then with Paul and Natalie. I can smell next week’s booty, lots of gold stars, lots of silver.

In honor of this, our second game, the food theme was Two.

Caffo won the non-existent competition again, with his fried macaroni blocks. Creamy, crunchy, the use of truffle oil, the whole thing was eye-rollingly good. Tony’s KFC and sides, perfection. Natalie’s pesto toasts, Paul’s twice-baked mini potatoes, James and I brought tomato soup cups and grilled cheese pokers, all awesome.

The number two better know how we honored it.
We honored Two good.

Game 1, Paisans, 0-3

Instead of lifting pints this winter at the Silverado Brewing Company, the Paisans played in the Napa league. This may be the reason they beat us 3-0 for the first game of the season.

The food theme was Special Sauce.
Natalie’s asparagus and mustard dip, Brittany’s dad’s salsa recipe, my Indonesian Peanut Sauce, my memory fails me here. If you remember what you brought, please add it to the comments and we’ll add it to the record.

Team Joanie ended the evening at Ana’s Cantina, with memorable performances by Malcolm and Caffo.
