Weekend Kneeler Jeopardy


Category: Authors

Aside from being well-known authors, what do:

Charles Dickens
Edgar Allen Poe
Mark Twain
Louisa May Alcott
James A. Michener
Leo Tolstoy


have in common?

St. Alexander says to place your answer in the form of a question in the combox, say a decade of the rosary and wait for the answer.

NB: We are going to be gone this weekend for my husband's grandmother's funeral, so I don't know what computer access I'll have before Sunday night. Say a few rosaries while you wait :)

They were all alcoholics?
They were all bi-polar?
They all watched "Dancing with the stars"?

Terry:
LOL!! You may be right. I hadn't ruled out those possibilities, but there is still another thing they had in common that you didn't mention.

What is they harbored cats?

Vincenzo said...

What is they all liked to eat German Chocolate cake?

Adrienne got it, they were all adopted. I'd wager AA knew it too :)

I also don't know about the cats, but the chocolate cake idea sounds really good. When we (Cathy and Lisa and I) went out last week, we didn't even have dessert so missed out on the German Chocolate cake. May have to go back for some since it looked decadent!
