Quidditch by gilmorec via Flickr

Think quidditch is a game just for Harry Potter fans? Think again. Quidditch is definitely not for couch potatoes. Or the faint of heart. It may be based on a fictional activity but it combines speed, strength, endurance (along with a bit of mischief) and a caliber of athleticism that rivals any mainstream sport.  Read more >

Guitar Hero

Guitar Hero has been strumming klunkers for quite a few financial quarters, and the publisher, Activision, has booed it off the stage. As mentioned in Rolling Stone, the game may live on in mobile or social formats, but not in its current form.  Read more >

Deviled Eggs

The Super Bowl Countdown ends on Sunday. At that point everyone joins together to watch commercials and eat! Oh, wait, I mean they join together to watch a football game. The Green Bay Packers and Pittsburgh Steelers meet up in Dallas on Sunday to run, throw, kick and pummel each other. That match-up gives you a number of "theme options" outside the pizza, wings, chips, and beer that are thrown at you the moment Super Bowl Party ads go on the radio, newspaper, and TV.  Read more >

Spin Class

I have a friend who is a hard-core athlete. In her spare time she likes to teach fitness classes at a gym. She asked me to go to her spin class the other night. I said "sure," never having gone to a spin class, but thinking it would be a good workout. Like I said, she is hard-core and very competitive. I should have known that she would teach a class that would not be for sissies.  Read more >

I have to admit that I’ve never really played the game of charades.  I know it entails a certain amount of guessing and an equal amount of acting with the objective of the game to guess a phrase from a series of gestures and pantomimes.  Read more >

The real explanation behind professional athletes is not necessarily innate or inherent talent. It is the ability not to kill themselves as toddlers.Baseball: Get hit in the head with a ball. Chase after it. Get distracted by the tee. Canvass the backyard clutching the bat and tee stand.Hockey: Slip and slide in socks across the kitchen floor stick tapping the tile until your brother takes you out with *his* stick. Giggle when Mom puts you both in the penalty box.  Read more >

Our Stewart family’s horseback Easter egg hunt has become a tradition that we have celebrated for the past seven years, ever since we moved to Bear River City.  Easter is one of my favorite holidays and horses are my favorite animal, so it just seemed natural to put them together.  Read more >
