*forks, knives and S.P.O.O.N.S


When I was a young girl growing up in south east Georgia our family often played the card game known as SPOONS.   I recall many fun nights around the dinner table with some of momma's serving spoons, a deck of cards and nothing else.  Nothing else was safe on the table or near the area surrounding the table.   This weekend while my sisters and momma were visiting I suggested we play SPOONS!   There were a few things that were a possibility while playing SPOONS at our house; someone may crawl across the table, spoons may get bent,  you might get bruised during the course of this card game and it was pretty much a guarantee that you would have a blast!






The boys were busy in the barn while us grown ups and Kierstyn settled in around the table for a great game of SPOONS.  While no one climbed across the table to get a spoon that flung from another players hand, spoons were tugged and pulled on until it ended up in one hand of one player.

  2. I LOVE spoons!!! I grew up playing that too, except our game was more wild I think. At least once during each game blood was drawn and people always went over the table. Always fun.
