Wait for it......................

























THE LOOPY EWE! And some other small goodies - who knows what will be added. To enter, please please post your answer to the two questions listed below. I'm asking that you enter only once, please! Correct answers will be entered into a drawing. I'll select the lucky winner using a random number generator. You will have until this Friday, December 7th at 12:00pm EST to enter! Good luck, and Happy Holidays!

CONTEST QUESTIONS
We are traveling a small distance (in the very near future) to see a live performance of my favorite Christmas movie. It's actually considered to be a musical. Critics sometimes complain that it's got a very predictable plot, but I love it just the same. The name of the movie/musical is also a popular Christmas song - made famous by one of the four stars in the movie. Question #1 - Name the movie!
Question #2 - Name the four stars of the original movie (in any order).
Hint - The title of the movie contains 2 words, and the first word is a color.....

That's all I'm saying..........Good luck!

I hate to be un-original but Wikipedia told me the same thing - The movie is White Christmas (love...) and the 4 headliners are Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen...and extra bonus, Vera-Ellen was born Vera Ellen Westmeier Rohe. :)

Enjoy it - what a magical evening it will be!
