Thanks for watching with us! We had a blast. Tomorrow: Cynthia takes us through how to make her POISON Blackberry pie, along with a recipe / cooking contest.
I missed the live tweet :( But I've seen this movie so many times (it's my favourite!!) that I'm pretty sure I can answer all the questions except #3 without rewatching or checking my answers. Now I'm off to go find your tweets!!
ReplyDeleteI'm composing my entry for this contest and I have a few questions! I found a few moments in My Lady Jane that I think are nods to The Princess Bride, but I'm not completely sure. Is there some penalty for including these, if it turns out that they're actually not? And, this might seem a little silly, but I'm not sure how to count the paragraphs on the page haha. Is the 1st paragraph of the page considered the paragraph at the very top, even if it's a continuation of the last paragraph on the previous page, or the very first indented paragraph on that page? Thank you!
