Entries so far:
Angela Messenger at Where Angels Go - 22
Irene - Since Irene lives in a itsy bitsy area we will count each of her entries as two. - 16
Emily at Randomability - 10
Roses and Jessamine - thinks the Vatican has her beat. Yes, but R&J - last time I checked the Vatican hasn't entered....just saying.
Esther of a Catholic Mom in Hawaii ( and gazillian other blogs) - hasn't had time to count up all her Catholic goodies. That sounds promising.
Paula B52 (I've missed you, babe) - 19
Kasia hiding out in the Clam Rampant - 33
Karen in Canada think she is at the bottom of the heap but I think her numbers are pretty darn good - 9
I'll keep the contest running through this upcoming week to give me time to figure out the prize. It will also give Angela M. time to run out and purchase a bunch more stuff. She hates to lose.

ROFLMAO!!! I am just waiting for the freight delivery from EWTN, the Marians and amazon LOL!!!! Cost me $642.00 but darn it - I'm in it to win it!!
HEY!!! As the current frontrunner in this contest, I object strenuously to Angela M's getting to stack the deck now that she KNOWS how many items the rest of us have!!!!! :-p
Good thing I'm not running for President, eh? :-)
Angela LOL
Kasia, where can I find your blog???
Adrienne, your post inspired me to do the same thing on my blog, though I think I'll award a prize to the Catholic with the fewest sacramentals. Those with the most probably don't really need another one. I'll have to come up with something...
Well I wasn't going to enter this competition as I don't have that many items, however I do have a couple of unusual things so here I go:
1 carved wooden statue of St Francis
1 large-ish crucifix (although it is at my mother's house at the moment)
1 Infant of Prague Who stands near to the oven (My godmother told me that the Infant of Prague will always watch over my cooking and protect the kitchen).
1 carved stone relief of the Nativity. Mary is laying bed and pointing to the Child Jesus in the manger while a happy looking Ox and Donkey look outwards.
Assorted post cards which are displayed on my fridge in rotation (when I feel like changing them) 4 at one time
1 picture of Our Lady
2 Holy Water Fonts. (1 by the front door and 1 in the kitchen)
1 picture of the Christ Child and Our Lady.
a Print of St Vincent de Paul.
My Rosary is sometimes on display but usually in my pocket during the day or else under my pillow at night.
Total 12ish
My Missal and Bible sit on display by my bed but I guess that is more in the book line and not applicable to this...
Oh, I forgot about my fridge magnets! I also have Our Lady of Guadalupe, St. Edith Stein, and St. Joseph on my fridge...and some prayers/prayer cards up there too...
Now I'm worried about quantity vs quality... how can my hundreds of dog-eared tatty old prayer cards compare to my one, unique Russian icon, or the Rosary blessed by Benedict XVI? I won't be able to sleep at night over this.
