Weekend Report: Lasagna-thon

Food this weekend ->
Got fresh rice noodle wraps from the Chinese Grocery store in Kanata at lunchtime on Friday.  I was hoping to get the red bean seasame balls too, but they didn't have any.

Friday night Ben, Susanna, and I made 18 medium lasagnas.  I termed it "Lasagna-thon".  We first made 9 meat lasagnas.  The tomato sauce was made up of ground beef, mushrooms, onions, roasted garlic, and Oktoberfest sausages.  Topped with 3 cheese mix.
Beginning of Lasagna-thon.
The next 9 were seafood lasagnas.  The Alfredo sauce was made up of ground pork, mussels, shrimp, scallops, onions, and roasted garlic.  Topped with white cheddar.
18 Lasagnas.
Each lasagna noodle was covered in a ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and egg mix, rolled, and then placed in the pan.  Each pan had 4 rolls. 
We cooked 2 of each to eat.

I was actually full after eating 2 rolls with some garlic bread.

Useless Gaming News:
4-Player gaming on Saturday night.  We played City Hall first.  Pretty good game.  It's about buying and building property while balancing money, influence, population, and approval ratings.  Brian gave up on turn 3, because Paul and I were taking the actions he wanted.  He was also angry that I wanted to build property and gain approval...? that is the point of the game and I was playing to win.  And I did :)
City Hall.
We then played Shinobi Clans.  The game rounds start by drafting ninjas/weapons/event cards in order to either assassinate or defend the target.  Each player can select a contract to attack or defend 2 different targets with a random gold value for each target.  Then each player plays face down cards on the target in a stack.  When all players are done, the stack is revealed one card at a time to determine the target's outcome.  Really fun game and probably on "get" list.

Picked up the From the Vault: Angel's set on Sunday from Kobold's Corner.  They were charging a reasonable $50 for the set.  Everyone else was selling them for $100!
Also picked up the Batman Fluxx promo card: Clayface.
