Smorgasbord

Rather than hosting a new edition of "Quiztime" today, I have decided to do something a little different. All that this blogpost is about is providing links back to previous homemade quizzes I have published here on "Yorkshire Pudding" in the past year.

Incredibly, for your entertainment, elucidation and occasional frustration, I have created more than thirty "Quiztime" quizzes. But here are just ten of them:-

Yes folks it is a veritable smorgasbord of quiz questions. Some of you out there might be asking - What the hell is a smorgasbord? 

ANSWER (from Swedish) a range of open sandwiches and 
delicacies served as hors d'oeuvres or as a buffet.
a wide range of something; a variety.

  2. I'm not sure there is a single person in the entire civilised world who does NOT know what a Smorgasbord is.

  3. My brain is not up to coping with such a deluge of daunting demands on its abilities.
    I am off for a post breakfast snooze.

  4. Interesting to see my answers to most of the quizzes though it looks like I missed partaking in a couple.
    Not sure where you found your top photo YP, but it looks nothing like any of the Smörgasbords I've had in Scandinavia!

    1. It doesn't surprise me that you don't remember a smorgasbord like that one Carol as I only dine in top restaurants when visiting Sweden*.


      * - I found it via Google!

  5. Smorgasbord (Not the South Glamorgan Gas Board) is what we tuck into on Christmas Eve. With so many Swedes in the family, we are almost obliged!

    1. Maybe a quiz about a buffet! That might be a good idea.

    1. Google Translate says "I didn't know you were talking (Swedish)" but I do not think that that is what you meant to say.

    2. It means "I didn't know you could talk Swedish".

    3. I did a one semester course in Swedish when I was at university but unlike you I am not gifted in mastering foreign languages.

  8. Too rich for my taste. (In reality, I don't want to be reminded yet again how little I know . . . )

  9. Are you just trying to remind me of how poorly I usually do on your quizzes, Neil?
    I did know what "smorgasbord" was! We use that word all of the time when I put out an array of leftovers for dinner.

  10. Where is the pickled herring?
