Mauvelous First appeared in 1993 in the 96 color box. It was also named in a contest to name 16 new colors. Wisteria from a few weeks ago was also named in this contest. I should have marked on my master list when crayons got their names via contests so I could remember to add that info.

This is also the last pink of the year *sniffs* So when I saw the gorgeously pink sim Pangloss on Honour Mcmillan's blog I knew I had to go it as it was fitting.


The pose I used is a new one from Hopscotch and I am pleased to announce that I was picked to be one of their new official bloggers! YAY!

The sim, as I said before is very PINK, but the windlight setting the sim owner chose for it tones down the pinkness a LOT. It's a very surreal sim and still being finished, as I ran into its owner and she told me so. Very nice lady who just loves pink!

All of my photos of Pangloss are seen here I took some without the sim wind light so you can see just how PINK the place is!

Next week starts my themed colors and visits to haunted sim builds and houses! I have been giggling all year over the color names for October and can't wait to explain them!!

So this weeks is late as I could NOT NOT NOT find a sim that fit what I wanted to do with this color. I mean come ON its CHOCOLATE, so I ended up just doing a pose and photo box.

Anyway! This weeks crayon comes from that infamous pack of scented crayons 1994's Magic Scent. From the scents before they changed them so kids wouldn't eat the crayons.

And since I just now realized I forgot to give last weeks colors, Wisteria can be found in the standard 96 and up pack starting in 1993. It's one of my favorite flowers and smells so wonderful when its in bloom in the spring!


And as I said, CHOCOLATE! No sim could be found! So I changed the outfit I originally planned and treated myself to the full set of 12 chanimations SugarRush calender pose set. Which is the only way you can get the photo box I used. Picked up a yummy chocolaty fun outfit from Boudoir and took myself to a sandbox for the photo!

I do plan to eventually do a full set of all 12 of the Sugar Rush pose sets. Heck I have two other photo sets I have in the planning stages as well! I should get around to doing those as THOSE I have everything for already! Sugar rush I still need to pick out the outfits!


Oh and cause I can




Why does the chocolate room not exist in Second life? Or at least be easy to FIND?

This is the last Disneybound post. And it ended with the man that started it all instead of a character. Natalee made a beautifully touching post about how big an influence Disney and his Legacy has had on her life.

Disney had a huge influence on mine as well. I can't recall a time when Disney was not in my life. Some of my best memories center around the movies, the parks or the music. Oh the music, one of my biggest loves is the music. Disney and Broadway, then the two met and I was just in heaven.


Thank you Mr Disney, for your dream that led to your legacy.

The Cultured Pearl crayon is another from the 1997 pearl brite set, and the last of the colors from that set to show up in this challenge! I tried to include at least one crayon from all of the specialty sets listed on the Wiki page of crayon colors. There are, three sets I chose not to pick from as they had multiple colors in one crayon and with the exception of July 4th I thought those would be just to tricky to do.

The outfit, is some gloriously nonsensical thing I have had sitting in my inventory for years waiting to be worn someplace. The winged hearts in side the hoop cage ROTATE! I love it. I think however it was from a hunt or a group gift so I am not sure you can still get it.

The build I found via the destination guide. It is on Leroy and is one of the temporary small "globe" builds they do. It's quite peaceful, even has some music playing that is not on the stream. And a few gifts on the table with the radio playing the music. I enjoyed it. I did not take many photos as its a small build but you can see them all at this link
