Riddle me this!

[oldkicker]

Gaze at this sentence for just about sixty seconds and then explain what makes it quite different from the average sentence.
Quick! What is it?

Yesterday's:

If coast is spelled C-O-A-S-T and roast is spelled R-O-A-S-T and most is spelled M-O-S-T . Then how do you spell what goes into a toaster?

B-R-E-A-D (and myriad other answers!!)

Cooney Mansion, in Cosmopolis, Washington, puts on a Dickens' Family Christmas....have dinner with the Crachit family or perhaps High Tea!

 

[oldkicker]

Good Morning Riddle Friends!

Less than a week until Christmas! My family starts arriving tomorrow night. We're all getting very excited about seeing each other again. Especially the kids! I think it's going to be a very nice holiday this year.

 

[Lars624]

Good Morning OK & fellow riddlers!
Happy Thursday
I am sure that having all of your brothers and their families in town for the holidays will make them extra special Bernie!

 

[oldkicker]

Oh! I almost forgot!

Here's a very special riddle for a certain someone who suddenly has all kinds of time on her hands!

School's out for WINTER!

What have we here?

Sir, I bear a rhyme excelling
In mystic force and magic spelling
Celestial sprites elucidate
All my own striving can't relate

 

[amid chaos]

Morning buds!

Off to school this morning with a 20 inch gingerbread house and 15 pounds of candy and 20 pounds of frosting.

 

[Snowwark]

Good morning Oldkicker and riddle friends!

Okay OK, I've gazed at it for 60 seconds 4 times, for a toal of ......umm...um..4 minutes!! Still nothing!

Speaking of Dickens, here's a shameless plug !

Less than a week....uh oh!!

 

[dumboiu]

good morning, all........

 

[oldkicker]

Seeing my niece's and nephew's smiling faces on Christmas Day is going to be a real treat, Lars.

I should mention that Boo'sMom's DS has gotten "Age of Mythology" for their PC. So she'll be running a little late today - he's up early, srubbed and ready for school, and getting in some quality PC time before he goes!

 

[snoopy]

We need to do a riddler's High Tea at the Cooney's Mansion, me things.

Sounds like you will be having a Christmas-card Christmas, Bernie. Mine always resemble the card from the outside, but in reality are anything but. I always envision these lovely little get togethers, everyone singing carols and warming up by the fire. Somehow they never live up to my expectations.

PM on its way.

Here's the house

Good morning,
Well I was 2 for 2 in this my first week with the riddlers....but I'm stumped today.
Hey, did I make it on page 1????

 

[amid chaos]

The only think I notice on the original post is that your soccer mickey has a santa hat...so tell me, how long has it been there?

 

[dianeschlicht]

Good morning OK and riddle Corral! Sounds like you need a truck to get to school this morning, Amid!

I too have spent at least 4 minutes looking at the sentence with "no enlightenment"!!

Glad your holiday is shaping up nicely, Bernie. Ours promises to be kind of low key this year.

 

[Lars624]

Nice house Amid! My DS's 1st grade teacher made each of them a house to decorate out of graham crackers but when she was assembling them at home she couldn't quite get them to stick together. When we picked them up the other day she announced that they shouldn't be eaten because she caulked them instead of frosted them!

 

[Kitty 34]

Good morning everyone! I've subbed in the Middle School choir now for 9 weeks and tonight is our concert!! I'm a bit nervous!!!

 

[Ranatra]

Good Morning Riddlers!!
I'm with you Kim, Nothing.

Amid, would have loved to see a pic of that gingerbread house!

 

[dianeschlicht]

LOL, Amid! Bernie has had the santa hat since returning from DIS Con! I always like your kicking Mickey's changes for the different holidays, OK. Next will be the shamrock for ST. Pats!

 

[oldkicker]

Love the house, Amid! Katie brought one home this Tuesday. It's a beauty. Apparently the kids were given an absolute mound of candy to decorate with. Some of it even made it on to the houses!

'Morning, Dumboiu!! Are you waking up yet??

Snoopy - we've all called a truce and promised to be on our best behavior. Time to act like kids again and enjoy the holidays. High tea sounds grand - I'll bring tiaras for everyone.

Low key is good too, Diane!
