Well done teams. It was a great recipe courtesy of our amazing Captains, Karen and Paulette. Thanks ladies for the amazing efforts you put in to Team Vanguard Sabayon throughout this year's UNO.

Karen, how is your hand going? It is a really difficult time to get other medical appointments done. All the best with it.

Great job, Karen. And thank you for taking on that task. I am in awe of you creative gals.

Anyways, another UNO nearly done. Always a pleasure and thanks to everyone for great team work.

Thanks Tiffany.. that's pretty awesome.. and delicious.

Finished and added to spreadsheet.

Also my book has been used twice in the mini challenge. Is this okay?

That's great. Knew we could do it, ladies!

Thanks Karen. I'm sure I've got quite a few short (Cough, Smutty, cough) books I can complete before the end of the challenge. I'll put my energy into that, I'm no good at the story writing. Put me down for 5.

Are there any particular letters we need to read for?

Finished .

Shelf and s/sheet noted.

Thanks for the update Paulette.

I have about 3 or 4 books to add before we finish the challenge.

Just a question, for the story time do we just add the titles of the books we have read? And then a team member writes a story using the titles or parts of the title?

Finished and added. . Loving this series .

Karen, I think lots of people are picking up old hobbies or discovering new ones at the moment.

In all the chaos, I have a new grandson born last week. His name is Zachariah, but will be known as Zac. Something good in all the crisis.

Also finished - . Sheet and shelf noted. I can't believe that UNO is coming to an end already. Here's hoping for the big finish!

That's a great thought, Sisa. I agree. Maybe it should be Captains' Choice for the recipe, they have done a great job and I'm sure we'll all be happy with their choice.

Hi Karen, managing like everyone is. But life is different. I'll be scarce this week, as off for family duties. I have to travel tomorrow, absolutely no choice but I am nervous about being stopped. Hope every is coping with the new reality, Happy Easter/Holidays and stay as safe as you can.
