Things I Love - Scrabble

Things I love....................


This is my feature where I get to share something that I just love. Since you are my friends, I like sharing things I love with others. It could be anything from a new product, food, recipe, song, image, to a person and everything in between. This will be something I am completely doing on my own, without pressure or compensation from a company, author, PR/Marketing firm, friend, business owner, etc. This will just be something that makes me happy and I want to share it with you. Enjoy some love!
Today's love is..................................SCRABBLE!
 
If you know me at all, you know that I LOVE to play Scrabble!  I play scrabble nearly everyday. I love to play Scrabble as a board game.  Whenever my mom's side of the family gets together, you know there is going to be some Scrabble being played.  My mom and her sisters can play Scrabble for hours and now my cousins and I like to get in on the action.  We love to try and beat our moms/aunts because they were our teachers!
 
Once I joined Facebook and realized I could play Scrabble with my friends and family on Facebook, I was super excited.  I usually have anywhere from 7-10 games going on at once with different people on Facebook.  Now that I have an iTouch it has even become easier to log on and play my Scrabble word in my Facebook games. 
 
Scrabble is a great way for me to use my brain and is something that I can play fairly quickly.  Depending on who I am playing with, I may only play one word a day or with someone else, we may play our words all day long. 
 
I can also visit http://www.pogo.com/ and log in and play Scrabble with the computer if I am really needing some Scrabble in my day.
 
I feel very fortunate that my mom taught me how to play this game and gave me a love for word games.  There are plenty of other word games out there, including Bananagrams, Scrabble Apple, Scrabble Slam, Chicktionary, Bookworm, etc.  I am grateful that my children enjoy playing these word games as much as I do.  I can often find our 5 year old daughter, playing Bookworm or Chicktionary on my iTouch and this is something I can definately be proud of.
