25 Truths and a Lie

Did you ever play two truths and a lie? In high school or college maybe? It’s a get-to-know-you or confessional game.

Here’s how it works. You say two things about you that are true, and one thing that is a lie. The other people you are playing with try to guess  your lie. If there is alcohol involved you can get people to give up some pretty good secrets. Juicy huh?

Short story for you… Steve and I played this game the first time we met – really met. We were at a sales team meeting, and the manager wanted everyone to get-to-know each other. My brilliant self came up with this game. Nerd. So there we were, 12 college kids playing a confessional game, 100% sober. Snooze fest. Steve called out my lie (I claimed I had a boyfriend). I called out Steve’s lie (he claimed to love snow).

In honor of my 25th birthday (I’m a quarter of the way to a century), we’re going to play a game. We’re gonna call it “25 Truths and a Lie”. I will list 25 things about me that are true and one that is not. You have to guess which one is not true. Everyone who play’s will be entered into a giveaway.

What will you get if you’re the lucky winner?

Well, I’m glad you asked.

The winner will receive a homemade purse from Home Baked Thread. Nicole is a great seamstress. I adore and admire her talent. She uses great fabrics, and everything she makes is just so darn cute.

Here we go…
