I was hosting family for games and [films](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/what-are-you-watching/657/1869) (and [lunch and dinner](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/what-are-you-cooking/792/973)), and I had plans for a camel-themed **Through the Desert** with 5 players and then later, with 7-8, **Camel Up**. Instead, finding myself with 4 players rather than 5, I decided to introduce **Azul** … and then we didn’t get to the other games at all. On the one hand I wish I’d stuck to my plan as I’d personally been looking forward to playing TTD – but OTOH everyone enjoyed the initial game of Azul and wanted to keep playing, so I wasn’t going to say no. Afterwards, with the other guests having arrived, it was time to watch a film, and then I needed to prepare dinner, so I quickly taught everyone how to play **6 nimmt!** and left them to it, and I really got a lot of vicarious enjoyment from listening to all the laughter ensuing from the card game while I was cooking. There were also a couple of quick games of **Push It** before dinner, and I have no regrets picking up that. (The family was playing **Pétanque** at our Xmas picnic, so a table-based equivalent was a very each teach.) So while I didn’t get to play all the things I’d planned and (despite having done a ton of cooking the night before) had to spend more time in the kitchen today than I’d wanted to (and hence less time playing games myself), it was still a fab day. (And as time-consuming as all the cooking was, the day was also a good excuse to try out a whole bunch of recipes that I hadn’t tried before, and pretty much everything turned out well.) --- _[View the full topic](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/recent-boardgames-your-last-played-game-volume-2/399)._
