Here's my question:Which New England author had a daughter who was nominated for Sainthood by the Catholic Church?
Pammy Jo I think I'm going to faint!!! 😲😂 That was the very question I was planning to ask next and you beat me to it. 🤣 Well naturally I know the answer but I guess I'll give others a chance first...
Meg wrote: "Pammy Jo I think I'm going to faint!!! 😲😂 That was the very question I was planning to ask next and you beat me to it. 🤣 Well naturally I know the answer but I guess I'll give others a chance first..."That is unbelievable, Meg! We must have a sort of psychic connection b/c you even dreamt about having to deal with a gas utility issue when I was dealing with my gas issues! You know, if a new member of this group would suddenly join in on our conversation, they might be very confused about why we are discussing gas so often. They might think it's another type of "gas" entirely!!! Yi-Yi-Yi! Wouldn't that be something???!! 🤣😆😯😳🤔
Pammy Jo
I believe you have Twain on the brain, Allyson!🤯😆💕Pammy Jo
*Or would that be Twain on the Bwain?🤔

I did really feel a bit lightheaded when I read your question! 🤣
That's too funny about the gas...yes, I could see the confusion! 🤪 Reminds me of the time when my dad and I walked into a convenience store/gas station for a snack, and the cashier asked my dad, "Do you have gas?" 🤦♀️🤣
Oh dear. 😳 What has this group come to?? 🤦🏻♀️🤣
Emma wrote: "Oh dear. 😳 What has this group come to?? 🤦🏻♀️🤣"🤣🤣🤣

Pammy Jo
I think you've stumped them all, Pammy Jo! 😂
Meg wrote: "I think you've stumped them all, Pammy Jo! 😂"🌳
Emma wrote: "Meg wrote: "I think you've stumped them all, Pammy Jo! 😂"🌳"
And that means? 😂

They don't have a stump emoji, so I used a tree instead. 😂
Meg wrote: "I think you've stumped them all, Pammy Jo! 😂"If nobody knows the answer, Meg, you should answer and get the next question. I like the tree! If there was a saw emoji, you could put it next to the tree and make a stump!😂

Great idea, Pamela! 🤣
I'm guessing Harriet Beecher Stowe. Sorry, this is the first opportunity I've had all day to put in my answer.

Or we could just say, "treed"! 😂 Where is Ruthie's guess today?

Meg, you should reveal the answer. Nobody else knows who it is.Pammy Jo
*I'm going next door to see my mom for a bit. I'll be back.
A male...or a female...it is a human, in any case.😁
Pamela wrote: "A male...or a female...it is a human, in any case.😁"You're a lot of help. Since it's not Harriet Beecher Stowe, can I have another guess?

I'll tell you who it is, Dorry.
Well, I was going to help Dorry out and give her the answer, but it appears she got lost in Alcott's Mansion...

Pamela said that I was stumped, I didn't! I looked at the quiz, and a name popped into my head!
