Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

Words to Eat By
"Though never a very good dieter, she'd found a rule of thumb that kept her from blimping out as her metabolism aged - eat what you want, but not all of it. So if she wanted cheesecake, she made cheesecake, had a slice, and took the rest to a friend or someone in her church who needed a pick-me-up."

ReplyDeleteDrewcilla is absolutely fabulous! I adore her new wardrobe. She kinda reminds me of one of my neighbours. Do ya think she can peddle all the way across the Canadian border during the night?

So much fun! She looks fab and I'm sure she's enjoyed by everyone!
ReplyDeleteDrewcilla is over the top, and I can only imagine the responses to seeing her on her perch. Thanks for your visit and for taking the time to write something I enjoyed reading and gave some insight to you.(:
ReplyDeleteYou are fun! Drewcilla is quite the clothes horse - she's perfect.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog. I don't feel quite as bad about the frozen turkey anymore. I'm so impressed with Drewcilla! Love her bright new orange blouse & cape
ReplyDeleteOkay girl- we all want directions!! A how-to post please!! This is adorable!!
ReplyDeletexoxo Pattie
oh.my.goodness. i need one of my very own!! lol, that is so fantastic, and i very much love her makeover!
ReplyDeletethanks so much for stopping by the cape on the corner, and for your awesome comment! that rat is actually fuzzy, so he's not too creepy. the tail has a loop, and i figured why not just hook 'em up? it's better than getting out the glue stick!
Drewcilla looks pretty elegant and sassy too! That hat is to die for. I love those mountains in the background. How nice to wake up to that every day.
ReplyDeleteOk, that is seriously the best halloween decoration I have ever seen. LOVE IT.
ReplyDeleteHow great! The new clothes do show up more. I think she is wonderful and kids in town must love knowing that when she shows up...Halloween isn't far behind.
ReplyDeleteLove the new wardrobe- all of that pedaling deserves a make-over!
ReplyDeleteOh...I love this...what a great tradition! I bet people in your neighborhood look forward to her going up every year. I know some years I don't feel too much like putting all my Halloween stuff out. But last year I came home to kids standing in my front yard waiting for me to turn all the Halloween lights on and I realized that people do look forward to it and you just have to do it whether your heart is in it that year or not.
ReplyDeleteThat said...I need to get busy.
Drewcilla is AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteYOU ROCK!!!! This is the most over the top, awesome, decoration ever.
ReplyDeleteOMG.....Drewcilla is adorable! I wish I lived in your neighborhood so I could see her In all her glory! Her new outfit is just perfect. She has a great stylist. You are so creative with all of the fun things you do.
ReplyDeleteLet the magic begin!
