We're running down to the wire on days before Christmas, so the voting committee has already gone on vacation and were not available to participate in this contest.
I had a very elaborate setup for the Marutanchi to go apple bobbing for the winner, but Chuck, the woodchuck totally chewed holes in all of the barrels. This resulted in us having a LOT of apples, and no way to bob for them.. therefore, I had to improvise.
Murasaki found an old Christmas stocking and suggested that we simply pull names from it. That seemed like a reasonable idea to me until I realized that it wasn't just pulling a name out, Murasaki wanted to practice with her fishing rod; fishing for names.
It took a little while to finally hook one, but finally we had a winner!
