Good guessing ladies and gentlemen, very impressive, so impressive that right in the beginning one of you nailed it, and I did not have to give another clue.
Some of the wrong but nevertheless impressive guesses included:
-A shoe horn,
-A letter opener.
-Something to stir boiling laundry.
-A page turner for newspapers.
-Kel thought since it was a yard long it could be, "…a tongue depressor, and it's long so the house doctor would not catch any germs!
-A game token or card.
-Kay said, "It was used in the Opera House to direct music."
-A board to flip crepes, or to take bread out of the oven.
-A putty knife.
-It is used to fold or crease linens or newspapers.
-Mary Kate guessed it was a, "Crumb sweeper for a really big antique refectory table. the kind of table that could sit 40 people!"
Even French Husband did not know, and has been begging me since yesterday morning to tell him. I told him he had to guess, though he did not want to play. So he has had to suffer in the waiting… I have used it as a paddle to spank his behind. I must admit some of you gave me that idea… and I like it.
Laure, wins for the most creative answer:
Laure's response: "It's a toenail file for dragons and griffins!!!"
The correct guess, the first one to say it was Betsy, it is a page turner for a very large book.
I'll show the book later on… I have to go now and spank French Husband.
Thank you for playing! Thanks for your great ideas, and fun responses. I have got to stump all of you before the year, geez is that gonna be a tough task to do!
