Romancing the Alley {Updated}

So, I don't usually repeat posts...but when I get a great tip that will be added to a previous post, I feel it requires a special mention...

You may remember my Romacing the Alley post.


Well, Ethan and his wife had something to add. (Thanks, you two!!) He and his wife bowl with this little twist:

• Empty a small bag of Skittles or M&Ms into a cup or bowl


• Assign different styles of bowling to the different candy colors and then have each person pick a piece of candy at the start of their turn to determine how they will bowl that round.
  
  Examples for different styles include:
  "Granny Style" (holding the ball with both hands)
  Bowling backwards between your legs
  Placing the ball on the ground and pushing it with your foot (don't kick it...)
  Bowling with your opposite hand
  Using a children's ball guide if available (not to be confused with alley bumpers)
  Having your turn bowled by your spouse
  Bowl normally
  
  Ethan said, "It is fun to laugh at yourself and others make fools of themselves on purpose. It also helps level the playing field and decreases the level of seriousness when bowling with people who know what they are doing."
  
  Such a great idea! Now, let's get bowlin!
