Simple Chocolate Cherry Protein Energy Bar
As part of Con survival week I’ve decided to share with you one of my favorite recipes for an energy/protein bar. This Chocolate Cherry bare is simple to make and is far healthy for you than thos things you would by at your gas station.
It has a balance of protein, carbs, and fat that is just about right for me when I’m on the move or when I go longer between meals than I should.
I hope to see you at Gen Con, and I have to thank all of my kickstarter backers for inspiring me to make this happen it was a lot of fun.
It’s Con Survival Week!
Hello gamers, and welcome to Con Survival week! What is Con Survival week? Well it’s my tips and tricks for returning home safe from your journey without the dreaded con crud that slowly gnaws at your soul once you’ve returned. No seriously, it is about how to survive without too many health issues.
Over the next week, I’ll be sharing with you all kinds of tips that I have learned over the years through one experience or the other. I will be pulling on memories from just about everything I’ve ever done – marksmanship, cross country, MMA, conventions, and judging several Magic events that lasted whole weekends. All of these will come into play as we discuss everything from the most basic safety tips to eating right and getting a good night’s rest before driving home. Oh and I nearly forgot, I’ll be sharing some recipes too!
A Review of Student Bodies from Smirk and Dagger
Student Bodies is a cut throat zombie game designed by Michael Grenier and Matthew Regney. Published by Smirk and Dagger Games, it’s recommended for two to five players ages ten and up. I would say that the cut throat style of play in this game leads to a slap in the face kind of motif.
In Student Bodies you and your peers are faced with the dilemma of escaping the highschool during a zombie apocalypse. The problem is that there are so many zombies you first need to get to the chem lab and create an antidote or in game terms find it. Then you have to make a dash across the campus to escape out the front door after dodging a shambling mound of zombies without getting bitten. Don’t worry too much about being bit, if you’re turned into a smart zombie and can still win by eating other players, which I find to be a rather fun and redeeming factor when there are more than two players.
