AROUND THE HOUSE by Linda Packer Young

I have finally found someone who loves to play Scrabble as much as I do.  Can’t say who without checking with her but we had a great time playing last Friday.  I could care less about scoring.  If I place the last tile I have won, but that’s going to change at our next Scrabble session.  We also  need a Scrabble dictionary.  There are a couple online but cumbersome to refer to.  For example there was a discussion on whether or not “ana” was a word.  One meaning is “favored grace” in Hebrew and there are others.  I can’t wait for our next game.
