Thank you for the guesses, Lin, Kim and Lisa!
Holiday Mystery Quiz: Guess and I'll Mail You a Dollar
The winners [pls. see their answers in yesterday's Comments section] are my cousin Lin and my friend Kim. I will be mailing them their prizes. And Lisa's answer cracked me up: Santa Claus's emergency Xmas eve supplies....he's replaced the reindeer with a Prius.
The answer is:
Things Dad Wanted for Christmas
[H. guessed too, but in person. I don't know whether to mail him a dollar. :) And my dear Sis surely guessed, but it's her policy not to comment on blogs. She likes to be elusive like that, and also feels too busy to start posting comments.]
Anyway, it's the first Christmas in my life that I won't be shopping for a gift for Dad. He requested all of those things over the years, including the windshield washer fluid. I have a feeling that every year I will pause and reflect at the gallons of blue car juice in CVS, which is what started this whole thing yesterday morning.
Have a good day!

I suspected those items were just weird enough to to have something to do with my "unique" uncle. Don't send me the dollar – have more contests instead! Love, Lin
ReplyDeleteGee, in retrospect the answer seems perfectly logical! But I was totally stumped yesterday....
