Leslie I'm too embarrassed to enter this contest as a quick look makes me feel very ignorant about Christmas. Either I'd have to cheat and use Mr Google or abstain. I look forward to the answers.
Aw, give it a go, jmb! These are just some of the questions we had to answer at our church's annual Christmas banquet. I certainly didn't know all the answers, but I thought they were good questions! :D
I think I know two answers, just off the top of my head.
7. Bedford Falls. And it turns into Pottersville.
10. We Wish You A Merry Christmas.
13. A voice as big as the sea.
Hey, maybe I know more than I thought. I’ll go through the list again and e-mail you my answers.
What do we win? :-)
Waddya tink, Josie? Should there be a REAL prize?
Of COURSE there should be a real prize. I gave away one of my ugly old, oops, I mean beautiful candles, didn't I? And who can forget the Made in China waterbottles I (unloaded) awarded?
Don't you have something tacky you need to get rid of? :-)
Crap - I think I'm in the same shoes as jmb & josie... I know some ofthe answers and couldn't even beging to answer others.
How about best 3 out of 10 :0 ?
Thanks for the invite to take part in the quiz but a quick glance tells me that I will score zero on this one.
I'll try one; Christmas is the 355th day?
I'm a snapdragon, full of mischief.
I know a few of the answers. Christmas, FL has the Christmas tree. I've driven thru it.
We wish you a Merry Christmas
A voice as big as a sea.

Hmmm...what could the prize be??? Got it! A pair of lovely vanilla scented candles. I'll add the photo to the post.
See? Showing my ignorance. I know my answer is wrong. It wuld be correct for somebody's birthday that I know but not for jesus's birthday. Let's just say it is off by 4.
This is quite hard. Like everyone else I know some. They are good questions.
I'm afraid this is out of my league. I could spend all day researching on the internet because I knew the answer to only a few! This is a very creative and clever idea. Thanks for sharing and letting me know. I always appreciate it when you stop by.

Hey...! Sylvia is getting herself quite a collection of prizes! She also won the la China water bottle. Heh.
Congratulations, Sylvia!
I've been away! I plead absenteeism. (However a lot of the answers I didn't know).
I love the elfing, it's a lot of fun.
Looks like xmas day will be about the 30c, fine and sunny here (so far).
This year has flown so quickly, it's just incredible.
Pam
thank you for the congrats Leslie & Josie. i'm excited about winning.
Congratulations Sylvia on winning.
I am baking Christmas yummies today, with my daughter.
This week I get to wrap all the presents and start putting them under the tree. I have been putting it off due to pet activity in the house. The visiting dog has his owner returning early. Cute doggie, but 3 dogs running around is a lot of dogs.
What did Sylvia win? I hope it was something fun and exciting.
Leslie it just dropped 20 degrees out.
BRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!
did you just send that wind my way?
Great Job Leslie- I am glad that you gave the answers! This was so much fun. I love your elf character- it is just so festive!
