This is a bracelet I made that will be going to my April trivia winner, Erin, in addition to the stickers I’m sending her way. Yes, as you can see I’m still a little behind. I have yet to give Jenn, my May trivia winner, her prize. Sorry gals.
So as you can see, there are [...]

Ok. Yeah. So I barely remember it either. I still intend to do it, really. But probably not with the frequency I originally intended. That said, let me catch up on the things I’ve slacked on:
First, April’s trivia winner was Erin and her prize (which I will be sending out soon) is below:

If you know me, you’ll know that I wanted to be a doctor since I can remember.

The correct answer to May’s Trivia Question # 1 is Albert Schweitzer. Thanks to www.harpers.org, from which I linked the pic from.
This week’s commenters are creativebebe and Erin. Since this is the last post before I made my rules official, I will give each of them 1 point each for May!
Besides, Michele gave two answers in one (Schweitzer [...]

Ok. So I thought I’d make the rules official to my monthly trivia. They vary somewhat from what I originally intended, but I hope it makes things a little clearer and a little more fair for the throngs of blog readers who’ve flocked to my site since I started the trivia. (Hey, a girl can dream, [...]

Q. who is this man?
A few hints: He was a physician, philosopher, theologian and musician who lived in the late-19th to mid-20th centuries.

Ok. So as an exercise in commitment, I’m going to try something on my blog. I’m typing this out as the thought is coming to me so I may have to re-visit or iron out details at a later time.
