This recap space is intended as a vehicle to describe the goings-on at The Back Door Bakerys & Cafe's weekly Wednesday night trivia quiz. And we certainly try to do that.

But in a fine example of that old adage about a picture being worth a thousand words, check out the before and after pictures (photos #1 & #2 above) of how team Hodge Podge rolls during the quiz! That's some two-fisted drinkin' right there!

Now, you might think that's photo 1 was taken before the quiz began and photo#2 was taken after it concluded. Yeah...you might think that. But NOOOOOOOOO! That was before and after round 1! (mea culpa: I might be exaggerating a little about this!)

But every picture tells a story, and the nine shots from last night's quiz paint a pretty clear picture of the good times and great people that gather every hump day to engage in a bit of trivia battle. You should come check it out. A good time is guaranteed.

See ya next week.

Fun and frivolity was once again on display this week at the Back Door Bakery and Cafe, and it was anybody's game to win as the final scores were close, close, CLOSE!

Hodge Podge - the formidable force pictured in photo #1 - emerged victorious with a strong 76-point performance. From there, things got a little tight. The Pharmacy Professionals ended regulation play in a tie with THAT Team! The Pharmacists won the tie breaker to take second place, with THAT Team! in third.

Just one point behind all of that, with a very respectable 42 points, The Smart "A's" were, indeed, pretty smart. Maybe you'll get that single point for winner's circle glory next week, A's!

We do have us some good food and fun and frivolity every Wednesday night at the BDB, and we'll be back for more next week. See ya then! (Yeah - the BDB. That's what people in the know call it. You could be part of the in crowd too! We'll see ya next week.)

Fun and frivolity broke out all over the Back Door Bakery and Caf? this week, and it was anybody's game to win as the final scores were close, close, CLOSE!

Hodge Podge emerged from the fray in first place - as they often do - but the win was a squeaker, with just two points separating the Podge people from the Maidelas of Shana, who finished in second place with 39 to Podge's 41.

The third spot in our winner's circle was occupied by new friends The Blobs. who came in from Montrose to sample King Trivia, Sunland/Tujunga style. That's them in photo #7 above, clearly not blobby at all, though we'd like to know what one of their teammates was thinkin' in photo #6.

We do have us some good food and fun and frivolity at the BDB, and we'll be back for more next week. See ya then!
