We have our winners! Thank you to everyone who participated in the Valentine’s Day 2017 Crossword Game. We had a lot of fun interacting with the players and what players you are!

The grand prize winner of a $50 gift certificate is Grace W. of MN. She was about seven minutes ahead of Anna W. of Sauk Centre, MN. Our third winner came from Facebook late this afternoon. Congratulations to Amanda H. of Pittsburgh, PA. Anna and Amanda each receive a $25 gift certificate.

Here is the game filled in with all of the answers. The key follows below. To read all of the answers that came in on the blog, please read the comments in yesterday’s post. I’d like to thank Marti S. for pointing out the misspelling of 13 down – Greenaway instead of Greenway. Since the clue appeared that way for several days and the site I pulled it from had it spelled ‘Greenway,’ we decided to accept either spelling as correct.

Thank you again for playing! We look forward to playing with you again soon. And in the meantime, have fun shopping the Recollections website!

– Donna
