Mystery Blogger Q’s 2013 theme: “The Encyclopedia, Social Media, and Me!!”
I learned all kinds of things from this blogger on Q Day.
“1. This prosperous country is a tiny peninsula jutting out from the Arabian Peninsula in the Persian Gulf. It is ruled by a monarchy, currently Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani is in power. (Qatar)
2. The name of the tragic bell ringer in Victor Hugo’s “Hunchback of Notre Dame.” (Quasimodo)
3. The largest of the Canadian provinces? (Quebec)
4. The broomstick riding game of “Harry Potter.” (Quidditch)
5. In American football, he’s the guy throwing the ball. (quarterback)
Bonus: No more talking, no more fun- what kind of meeting has begun? (Quaker)”
Who was it? HINT: This blogger dreams a lot.

Thanks, YV. Hope you and your family enjoyed your day.
I don't know, but I like the trivia aspect of what they're doing!
Me too!
I have no idea, but Happy Easter. =D
Thanks, Patricia. Hope yours was wonderful.
I thought about L. Diane Wolfe, but she's not a Q.
The Mystery Blogger posted about this topic on Q Day 2013. They're name doesn't have to begin with the letter. 🙂
I'm so coming back to know who this blogger is! I'm at my wits end!
Stay calm, Nas. Read something romantic and on Monday I'll post the answers.
Is it Alex? Alex knows everything!
You're right that Alex knows everything. How does he do that?
i searched through my blog list for a dreamer and i give up! i must know! will have to come back! (also i need to do some spring cleaning on bloggers who dont blog anymore…)
happy bunny day! i know you had fun with your crafts and kiddies!
Here's to spring cleaning. Hope your Easter was great.
Don't know the answer as I wan't involved in 2013. Am having fun now though and meeting some fabulous people. ☺ Thanks for dropping by my blog as well, Lee.
Meeting new bloggers is what makes this challenge fun. Great to meet you.
I am not sure who this blogger is- but I love quidditch. 🙂 So much fun trying to figure out these mysteries.
Happy Easter!

Hope this will improve my riddle guessing skills, but probably not.
No idea at all :(. But I'm enjoying getting to know a lot of bloggers!

I'm still trying to get around to more bloggers. Just so many!
I had no clue until I read the last couple comments. I feel I'm getting more informed every day, though, and that works for me.
Have a wonderful Easter weekend!
There's a lot to find out in this world, isn't there? Have a great day off!

Qatar seems to be a great place from what I've seen and heard.
Missed your bonus question today. Rats!

It does look like it would be fun. They offer just about anything you can imagine!
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny, the friendly host of the Alphabark Challenge!
Two votes for Seckman. Happy Alphabark whatever you're up to today.
Aha, human, C.Lee, McKenzie. I'm getting ready for my reflection pawsts about my reflection pawsts about the Alphabark Challenge, 2014! That should take me through to the end of May! Sheesh!
Pawsitive wishes,
Penny, the friendly host of the Alphabark Challenge!
Write well! I'll be sure to read your reflections.

Also.. no quasars? Those things are awesome! 🙂

Seckman, heh?
You've got us all stumped. Maybe we need to get knocked in the head with a quidditch ball to remember!
Nothing as drastic as that, Sherry!
Nope, not a clue, but I LOVE all those Q subjects. It definitely makes for an interesting day in the challenge.

This alphabet is just too long!
Drawing a blank. And due to lack of sleep, my glibness is on the fritz too. Have a great weekend with painted eggs, cakes, and new hats!! 🙂
Rest up and get ready for week 4!
The only Q that springs to mind is Matthew. Have a great weekend, Lee. Untethered Realms
Hmm. Let me check my answer sheet!
This week has been tough!
It has. Maybe next week will be easier
Geez. I read a blog of a Canadian writer, but short of time, so can't check my feeds and my brain is fried, so can't go that route either.

It's the end of week 3. All brains are fried.
I don't know the blogger either, but those are some cool fun facts for Q!
Very cool.
I actually think I have an idea but the name of the blogger is on the tip of my tongue. I just can't get it clearly out.
Come on, Angela. You know this one.
Not sure who this dreamer is. If I think I know who it is, I'll be back.
Do that because no one else has guessed so far!
I slept in this morning so I couldn't post first, but I'm still up there. And I can't think of who this is. I should know, but it's just not register. I should go back to bed.

Sleep is good. Take tomorrow off. 🙂
If you pulled all my toenails out I still wouldn't know!
Then you definitely do not know this one.
Well I haven't a clue, but I never do! Interesting collection of Q facts, though! Happy Easter, =)
But you don't give up and that counts.
Me too - Queueing up with everyone else to find out .. Happy Easter .. Hilary
And I thought you'd get this one, Hilary.
I don't know either…Happy Easter to you as well.
Enjoy Sunday.
I'm stumped… yet again…
The brains on the blink!
Just on pause. It will reboot by Monday.
Can't remember. All right, just plain don't know.
But you're the first one not to know!
