I keep thinking of "figgy pudding" at #16 because "figgy" sounds like "finger"... although I can understand the guess of "plum", as it sounds like "thumb".

A toe is a piggy, as in "this little piggy..." so figgy pudding is correct.

I think #46 might be "The Sound of Music" (because of "My Favorite Things" being a quasi-Christmas song).
