Great job BB and thanks for playing along :)
DeleteI can match about 80% of the inventors which means I guess on 20%!
ReplyDeleteI hope you had fun Carol, thanks for playing :)
Deletethat photo of the dried flowers in the window is so pretty!!
ReplyDeletethe only one i can even make an educated guess on is birdseye - frozen food. i would be guessing on all of the rest!!
and my best guess on the zipper is maybe the early 1900's. i will google it now to see if i made a fool of myself!!
I hope you had fun guessing Debbie, and happy you liked the flower photo :)
DeleteThank you!
So fun.
ReplyDeleteHappy you think so Rue, thank you :)

ReplyDeleteI appreciate you joining in Martha :) Since starting my monthly quizzes I realize how much I don't know but it's fun to learn and no, definitely no grades here. Just for fun :)))
