Booliette and Friends
Meet Booliette, a spitfire of a little ghost who spends most of her time with Legz (a spider) and Dustie (a dust bunny who resides in the attic with her and Legz).
Fun Facts:
Let the stories begin…
Tonight, Booliette caught Legz reading a recipe book titled Everything Radishes way past his bedtime. Since he didn’t see her in the window, she seized the opportunity and scared him.
The following day, Legz picked his favorite vegetable (radishes) from the garden outside and began making Creamy Radish Soup following the recipe from his book Everything Radishes. Booliette hovered over the steaming pot of creamy radish soup, complimenting Legz on how “good” it looked. Dustie sat off to the side, anticipating the moment he could taste the new recipe, claiming he was “hungry.”
Unfortunately, after Booliette, Legz and Dustie chowed down on the creamy radish soup, Dustie learned a disturbing truth: he’s lactose intolerant.
To give you an idea of what he’s dealing with, here’s a depiction of the Lactose Monster, a nasty little fellow that comes to life when poor little dustbunny’s can’t digest lactose:
If that isn’t scary, I don’t know what is. The good news? Booliette’s offered to obtain Lactaid (an enzyme supplement) so Dustie can enjoy products containing lactose without this Lactose Monster making an appearance.
When Friday comes around, Booliette gets a call from a friend inviting them to a dress-up party. How exciting!
When Friday came, the group dressed up as their favorite hero. For Booliette, that meant Elle Woods from Legally Blonde (like totally fierce girl power). Legz dressed as Prince Charming from Snow White (wielding a sword and finding true love while taking down an evil villain sounds amazing). For Dustie, he went with Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean (who wouldn’t love being captain of a super cool ship while drinking all the root beer they want?).
They were having the best time eating popcorn, drinking root beer (or pink lemonade in “Elle’s” case) and dancing to the best songs from the eighties. Just as midnight approached, the sound of glass shattering momentarily interrupted the evening. Wanting to investigate (and find a totally valid legal case of vandalism), Booliette (Elle) found where the noise came from. In the den, there was a busted window and a like totally alive hand crawling on the floor! Mortified, she shrieked, “Ahhh! Zombies!”
Turns out, a couple zombies didn’t mean to “crash” the party. They were just a little late. That busted window was a result of their theatrics in enacting a certain Star Wars scene. But accidents happen, right? Busted windows can be fixed, and our new undead party friends offered to pay for the damage.
The party lasted till three in the morning, and everyone went home tired. Booliette, Legz and Dustie snuggled up together in the attic and fell asleep. In their dreams, they fought crime, found true love and sailed across the seas.
