WITCHY WOMAN
Have you noticed that witches have
taken over Purple Chocolat Home?
There are not many witches dressed up in
PINK
PINK
PINK
But as you can see, Witch Jacqueline is one of them.
I love dressing up in costume - must be the theatrical
part of me - and I love hosting Halloween Parties.
I think we have hosted parties 29 out of 31
years of marriage. Actually, our first date was
on Halloween night, and we both dressed up and
went disco dancing at the Star Palace in town.
Gardner Village, in the Salt Lake area brings
out their witches every year. These ladies are
pretty grand. They appear mid-September and
are set amid the quaint old homes and mill that
make up the shopping and restaurant at Gardner
Village.
You can sit next to them and have your picture taken.
Or just wander around and marvel at
their size (especially the noses,
chins and bustlines!)
Whoa, take a gander at those honkers.
There is nothing petite about these gals, let me
tell you.
This one is part of a circle of gals that spin round
and round.
This one has flown up into a tree.
This big gal is trying to direct the air traffic,
guess she didn't do so well.
They are literally peaking out of everywhere.
The little one on the right belongs to me,
she's a live one!
This witchy-poo is hiding in a barrel of blankets
outside of a quilt shop.
Drewcilla would love riding with this witch.
If you didn't catch Drewcilla, she is our bicycling
witch that goes up each October, and yes she
really pedals and she lights up at night.
This little lady and I should open up shop together.
They have fun things going on all October.
Click here to see what's happening if you
are going to be in the area, or if you want
to get creative and bring it to your area.
They have:
Breakfast With The Witches (meet
the witch royalty, they sing and dance
and bring the kids up on stage - it's a party!),
Ride With Witches (ride on the back of a vintage
truck and hear stories from a witch),
Witches Night Out (costumes and dancing-
absolutely a blast and you will never
see more elaborate costumes all
in one place - tons of fun)
Witch-A-Palooza (a theater production)
Extreme Witch Make-over (get your make-up done)
and more.
Before I leave you to fly off somewhere,
I just need to take one minute more and
introduce you to their cast of characters -
The Witch Royalty.
These are the lovely witches that will entertain
you throughout the activities of the month.
(Yes, I was tempted to try out this year to
be one of them!)
They sing, they dance, they make you laugh,
and they pose for pictures too.
So fly your broom over to Gardner Village if you are in town.
We'd love to have you drop by.
Hug, hug, kiss, kiss!
Now, Beaulah, don't get mad just because
you are not the only witch in town. (Do you notice
the resemblance?)
See her twin sister Zoulah over at
Red Couch Recipes where she
has already cooked up a storm for Halloween.
I tell you, Beaulah is the lazy twin!
