• Martha Stewart Gives the Scor Pal a Run For Their Money

  • I was browsing today and I discovered that Martha Stewart actually makes a scoring board of their own similar to that of the Scor Pal, except with a few tweaks. If you read my post a while back on the Scor Pal and how much I loved it, you could imagine my excitement. They’re also [...]
