Mystery Farmers: The Thanksgiving Edition - Abundance

'You SHOULD have said, "It's extremely kind of you to tell me all this"—however, we'll suppose it said!'

'What right have you to call yourself so? You can't be a Queen, you know, till you've passed the proper examination. And the sooner we begin it, the better.'

Just wanted to share a couple of more great quotes

 

Oh dear... Mir {{cough}} I mean the Red Queen... she is talking to herself already! I read the wiki overview of the book and if she isn't careful she will putting herself into check!

 

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! (Finally )



It is Mir! I was starting to think you did not name #6 - PNP. I knew you named her correctly before so I was still gone to declare you the winner. Then, I started reading your reasons - very cool, and then my eyes saw it. You put PNP on the bottom of your reply. Yippy-dippy-do-day. We have a winner. I have no clue how I am gone to send all your goodies or how soon.

I also have to send a CAC to all those who guesses an MF 1st. Plus, I need to send a CAC to all the MFs who shared their stories. Thank You all very much! FYI: I will be sending goodies from This farm, farmermeg, *FarmerJack*, & redcactus1758.

TygerLilly had a melting of the minds a few days ago. We are in perfect agreement. We will be sending CJAT a red Fish that she was lovingly eyeing. I have 2 extra on my smaller gifting farms so this works out nicely.

The 10 first time guessers are the following.

MF 1 - Hatzvea post # 53
MF 2 - AnnT - # 56
MF 3 - Spot # 58
MF 4 - CJAT # 107
MF 5 - Lovely # 85
MF 6 - Lovely #22
MF 7 - Ann # 4 Ann, did not give a reason, but she posted before I made that rule so she will still get her CAC. I will also send Hatzeva a CAC since she was the 1st to name him with a reason. I forgot to write down the post #.
MF 8 - CJAT # 28
MF 9 - PNP # 35
MF 10 Lovely # 85

DBAY - I am sorry you were not feeling good. I am glad you are better now. I have no problem with you telling them. I am glad that you told both of them instead of just one of them.

CJAT - Congrats! on your Anniversary.

I have zero problem joking about my dyslexia, nor do I have any problems with calling myself a Giant Glitch. I think it is funny, and want others to laugh with me. I am well aware of my strengths and weakness. The most valuable thing I learned when I was working on my 2nd Masters Degree in Education which was focused on Special Education is to assess a person with a Learning disability - actually any person with a disability - on their strengths and weaknesses. I have also learned that any modification that helps a Special Needs student also helps an average student. These 2 concepts help me to see everyone as a series of strengths and weaknesses. We all have them. For me, why hide them. We need to embrace them, and when and if they are humorous - as mine often are. Let's laugh.

 

sglick - what a splendid performance as a game hostess!! Thank you for this, it's my favorite part of the forum, but this was very tricky, for us and for you, but oh what fun. Congrats to our new super sleuth - Mir! Great work!!

I'm delighted to see that I did get something right, thanks sglick! Please do not send prizes to me, please redirect to my neighbour "wertgegenstand"!

Edit: oh sugar, you devil of a terror sglick, you've already sent me two CAC! Thank you!

 

Congrats to Mir!!! Well played!!

{{restocks the fish tank and tucks it behind the shower curtain while sglick is busy sending out CACs}}

Am going to run now and spend the rest of my night with hubby... I had a wonderful time playing!! Loved your explanation of your dyslexia and education/learning application!

Have a wonderful night all!!

 

Congratulations to Mir and all the winners

Hooray to Sglick for putting this one together, definitely the hardest, most confuzzeling MF yet
I was completely lost but had so many laughs.
Now I will take my sword and biscuit and fly Peter Pan style down my beach on the coast of Florida.

 

Yes, I am the fastest CAC sender in the West. HeHeHe Sorry, Hatzeva

I have sent all the MF's their TY CAC and all the 1st guessers their CAC and sent Mir 4 of her pressies.

I am trilled that so many of you enjoyed this "too much of a good thing" game.

JJenks - You have a beautiful coast line in which to fly across. Very Jelly!

 

Thank you for hosting this edition of MF, sglick, and thanks for the CAC, tho it wasn't necessary . I had more fun coming up with silly reasons then I would have thought I could, and laughed myself almost out of my chair at some of the other reasons people posted. I guess I'm just not a good MF, too much talk about my "boys" to give me away, one of whom is currently asleep on top his dog box and snoring loudly. Congrats Mir on your win! And big congratulations to CJ and her husband on their anniversary . And while I'm at it and before I forget, Happy Birthday early to sglick! (Incidentally, when I typed my answers to sglick, I put the "forgives me my forgetfulness" part in because I didn't realize she was going to copy and paste, and I was late getting her my answers because in all my current state of RL busyness I forgot to send them as I promised, so I was apologizing, lol. Wasn't trying to confuzzle anyone.) I'm off to put up some Christmas lights and listen to Christmas CDs, good job everyone! ♫Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...♪

 

to Mir and all the winners! I'm so happy for you all.. Wanna join me for a happy dance?lol



@ sglick ~ Well done on hosting the most hardest and entertaining game. I had so much fun with this game.Thank you so much for the CACs. I really appreciate them all. Love your generosity!

@ all ~ Thanks for all the laughter and fun! I enjoyed this game very much! ROFL

Congratulations again to sglick , Mir and all the winners....

 

I'd have made more guesses but I have a lot on my mind of late and have been distracted.
Guess we made it too obvious with my clues. Am I that transparent ?
My Dad was a cook in the Marines during Korea... he always made the dressing, it wasn't till I joined that I found out where his dressing recipe came from !!!

 

Yay, I won I will join you in your happy dance lovely

Many many thanks to sglick for the competition, and I just had another look at the prize list that really is abundance, thank you so much for your generosity

Thank to all my fellow competitors, for the competition (thanks for CJ for racing with me to the finish line). But also for all your great and/or accurate guesses, many of the MFs I don't know that well, I could never have got them right on my own. But mostly, thanks for all the fun

Oh, I almost forgot thanks to all the Mystery Farmers

 

Thanks to sglick for once again being a wonderful hostess of a forum favorite.
Congratulations to all who received prizes.
Thanks to all MF sharing their stories of their memories of Thanksgiving.

 

A big thanks to all the Mystery Farmers who shared their stories and a glimpse of their lives with us! {{hugs}}

@Mir ~I loved racing you too lol! I thought for sure that AnnT wasn't a MF but I guess I was wrong!!

A big THANK YOU to TygerLilly and sglick for opening up the competition to MFs!! Will this be a change for the future?? Or is it too crazy trying to keep everyone straight??


@Banjo ~ I think it was the "former risky occupation" that gave you away, as it is well known that you retired from the Marines...! From some reason, people don't think that working with preschooler is as risky - and I would have to agree! (Thank you for serving)

 

Congratulations Mir and all the winners!
I had fun reading all your guesses!

sglick you hosted an amazing competition!

 

TygerLilly and I are very Happy that you'all had fun!

 

I didn't win - Boo Hoo. Oh, hang on a minute, I was having so much fun reading all the posts I quite forgot to submit mine! Honest!

Many Congratulations to everyone and thank you Sglick for keeping me amused.

 

Thank you Sglick for such rich entertainment! I giggled quite alot. And tigerlily, we can't forget her,! Belly rubs and a ball of yarn for tigerlily! Thank you all for some much appreciated humor in this contest, there were a few times I was late harvesting cuz it was more fun to read all the silly answers lol.
