Viking Chess Kubb Game!

 Kubb! Have you played Kubb?  It's a super fun outdoor yard game! There's a great overview on Wikipedia with the instructions that I'm not going post here.  But it's a great game and easy to make! It would make a great gift too--maybe for Father's day!?  You need: 1 King Piece: 12 inch 4 by 4 10 Kubbs: 6 inch 3 by3 6 Batons: 12 inch 1.5 inch dowels Stakes and string to mark court  We used a chop saw and cut all the pieces down to size.  Measure, mark and cut. Use eye pro!  12 inches for the king! To make the cool pattern of the king, The saw blade is set at a 45* angle. Set at 2" and cut.  Quarter turn the king and cut again...repeat for each edge.  Then set the blade stopper as close as possible to the blade This will create the cool crown on top of the king.

Broccoli Nachos!

 Broccoli Nachos! If you like broccoli, this is amazing! You will need one head of broccoli per person. Well, okay, you can cut them up and share...but we each had our own. Also, cheese, crumbled bacon and green onions. Place the washed broccoli heads in a baking dish with 1/2 cup of water and bake at 350* for 20 minutes.  Remove from oven and place a handful of cheese on the top of each head. Place back in the oven for a couple minutes.  Long enough to melt the cheese.  Then add the crumbled bacon and green onions. Then drizzle honey mustard, blue cheese or ranch dressing on the top.  Seriously so good! It's healthier than nachos and great if your people like broccoli! This post published on Doodlecraft first
