And you make fun of Dorry!!! 😂😂😂Yes Goodnight Meg! Safe travels! With lots of coffee!! ☕☕☕🍭🍭🍭🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️

As the first one to guess (if I remember right?), you are the winner...no matter what Dorry says. 😂

You had to know that Meg would go off in a cloud
of Hawthorne.
Emma wrote: "Meg wrote: "HAWTHORNE!"You have got to be kidding me"
Why would I do that? I want to go to bed! 😂

Lol! Goodnight all!🤗 Have fun...I guess I'll miss out on Hannah and Allyson's stumper. 😪
Unless Ruth wants to plot together with me...but no, Ruth's afraid of my grammar.
C'mon Dorry you can do it!!
And here is the long awaited question!What author ran for Connecticut Legislator, Mayor, and Congress during his lifetime but lost the latter to a cousin?
Emma wrote: "🤔💭🖥️🖱️=💡"Ha, are you looking up Allyson's search history!?!
Good morning Ladies!I agree with Dorothy,
Mark Twain, he lived there.
Dorothy wrote: "Unless Ruth wants to plot together with me...but no, Ruth's afraid of my grammar."Afraid?!
Ha! Surely you jest.
In cahoots for a quiz, certainly.
Ruth wrote: "Dorothy wrote: "Unless Ruth wants to plot together with me...but no, Ruth's afraid of my grammar."Afraid?!
Ha! Surely you jest.

Oh dear, a question from Dorry and Ruth! Not only will it be grammatically correct but also hard.
Hannah wrote: "*squirming excitedly in my seat*"Hannah,
Dorothy mentioned "plot"
Ready the magnifying glass.🔍
Hannah wrote: "Ruth wrote: "Dorothy wrote: "Unless Ruth wants to plot together with me...but no, Ruth's afraid of my grammar."Afraid?!

Oh dear, a questi..."
No fear!
The spirit of the quiz is trivia,
not grammar.

Lol no just threatening. 😂😂😉
Ruth wrote: "Good morning Ladies!I agree with Dorothy,

Looks like Ruth wants to by in cahoots for a quiz twice! LOL!
Dorothy wrote: "Ruth wrote: "Good morning Ladies!I agree with Dorothy,

Looks like Ruth wants to by in cahoots for a quiz twice! LOL!"
With one proviso,
nnooo grammatical torments.

LOL!
Ruth and I have our question ready, but since Hannah and Allyson's question is still ongoing, I won't ask yet, or you may be confused.
Does anyone else have guesses? Both Dorry and Ruth are copycats and said Mark Twain. Emma, were you able to find your sister's search history yet?
Still waiting for Doreen's answer too.

Hey, hey, hey! I said it first!
Recap: Dorothy- Mark Twain
Ruth- Mark Twain
Doreen- ?☕
I'll stick with everyone else and guess Mark Twain as well. That way we're either all wrong or all right!! 😆😅
Emma wrote: "I'll stick with everyone else and guess Mark Twain as well. That way we're either all wrong or all right!! 😆😅"Great decision making, Emma.👍

Hence the reason YOUR name
is listed first in recap.
Okey dokey! Just waiting for Doreen then.
Hannah wrote: "Okey dokey! Just waiting for Doreen then."Hi Hannah,
Do you know what answer is?
Isn't it strange without Meg?
Ruth wrote: "Hannah wrote: "Okey dokey! Just waiting for Doreen then."Hi Hannah,
Do you know what answer is?
Isn't it strange without Meg?"
Yes to both questions! The group isn't as ornery without Meg and her kerfuffles. Thank goodness she's only gone for a week.
Emma, why don't you start a kerfuffle?? We need some excitement!
Hannah wrote: "Emma, why don't you start a kerfuffle?? We need some excitement!"A bear walks into a bar and says "Give me a whiskey and...cola."
"Why the big pause? Asks the bartender. The bear shrugged. "I'm not sure; I was born with them."
Wow, it is silent on here tonight!! Usually by this time there is a scramble for last minute guesses and at least one ruckus before everyone goes to bed.

Thank you, Emma!! We all need a good laugh!
