  1. Salut,

    Parfois les retombées d'un événement arrivent très longtemps après celui-ci. Une dame a vu mon papillon 'Métamorphose Trash ' à l'expo collective du circuit de Memphrémagog en 2025! Elle m'a contacté pour savoir s'il était encore disponible et quand elle est venue chez moi, elle est tombée sous le charme de 'Songe'

    Je suis honorée que mes bébés se retrouvent dans un si bel environnement!

    Gratitude infinie 🙏

  8. Horse Sense

    The riding academy should listen
    And avoid the urge to scoff
    Cuz they’re gonna need a lawyer
    If their business begins falling off

  20. Book Review: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving

    Hi everyone! I hope you’re all well. Today is Friday, and it’s time for another review. Today, I’m sharing my review of Washington Irving’s classic spooky short story, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

    Click the image to find the book

    The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was originally published between 1819 and 1820 in the essay and short story collection The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. by C.S. Van Winkle and is 54 pages long.

    The Plot
    The story takes place in the small village of Sleepy Hollow, where we encounter Ichabod Crane, a lanky and awkward singing teacher, who becomes entangled in a peculiar love triangle. He is hopelessly besotted with the beautiful Katrina Van Tassel, the daughter of a wealthy farmer and in stiff competition with the brawny (and rather cocky) Brom Bones.

    Amid his romantic pursuits, the town’s tales of a ghostly Headless Horseman begin to creep into Ichabod’s thoughts, adding a potent layer of suspense. The Horseman—said to be the decapitated spirit of a Hessian soldier who lost his head during America’s Revolutionary War—is rumoured to ride at night in search of a replacement head.

    Characters
    Ichabod Crane
    The protagonist, Ichabod Crane, is a peculiar figure. Tall, thin, and with an appetite that belies his wiry frame, he’s simultaneously ridiculous and endearing. Irving describes him with vivid detail, comparing him to a scarecrow. Ichabod’s a complex mix of ambition and vulnerability. His intellectual curiosity and beliefs in local superstitions make him a fascinating, if slightly comical, lens through which we experience the tale.

    Katrina Van Tassel
    Katrina, while central to the story, is almost more of a symbol than a fully fleshed-out character. She’s beautiful, wealthy, and used to being admired. While Irving doesn’t give us a deep glimpse into her thoughts, it’s hinted that Katrina might be a bit of a flirt and enjoys pitting her suitors against each other. She’s a classic literary example of the sought-after “prize,” but I’d like to think there’s more to her than meets the eye.

    Abraham Van Brunt (Brom Bones)
    Brom is the antithesis of Ichabod. Strong, athletic, and confident, Brom is a near-perfect rival. Irving’s descriptions of Brom make it clear that he’s a local favourite with a mischievous nature that adds a playful layer to his personality. The narrative suggests heavily that Brom might have orchestrated Ichabod’s final encounter with the Headless Horseman, adding to his clever and cunning reputation.

    The Headless Horseman
    Though it’s unclear whether the Horseman is a spectral being or a fabrication, the character’s presence looms large over the tale. The image of a headless rider galloping through the night, searching for his head, is undeniably haunting. He is less of a character and more symbolic of the superstitious fears that shape the village’s identity.

    Writing Style
    Washington Irving’s writing oozes atmosphere. You know that feeling of curling up with a soft blanket while a storm rages outside? That’s precisely the kind of cosiness his writing evokes here—with a touch of spine-tingling unease, of course.

    His descriptions of the landscape are so vivid you can practically feel the crisp autumn air or hear the crunch of leaves underfoot. Irving describes the scene effortlessly, turning the little village of Sleepy Hollow into an unforgettable character in its own right.

    And then there’s his tone, which is gently mocking and satirical. It’s clear that Irving isn’t just writing a ghost story; he’s poking fun at human nature – our vanities, our superstitions, our endless need to compete with one another. Beneath the surface, there’s a deeper commentary about society, love, and ambition.

    One aspect of Irving’s prose that modern readers might initially find frustrating is its leisurely pace. The descriptive passages can be lengthy, but these are filled with charm, offering not just details but atmosphere. His storytelling has a musical quality, with sentences that often meander pleasantly, reflecting the sleepy, timeless beauty of the Hollow itself.

    Final Thoughts
    If you enjoy reading American Gothic fiction, or if you’re just on the hunt for a short, atmospheric read, I can’t recommend this enough. It’s perfect for this time of the year; it’s spooky, autumnal, atmospheric and compelling. Plus, if you’re a film or TV buff, there are so many adaptations to pair with the story. From Tim Burton’s darkly whimsical 1999 film to the modern interpretation in the TV series Sleepy Hollow, Irving’s tale continues to inspire creative minds across mediums.

    I’m giving The Legend of Sleepy Hollow an 8/10.

    Was the Headless Horseman real? Or was it Brom Bones all along? I’d love to hear your theories.

    Thank you, as ever, for reading my review.

    Until next time,

    George
