Citroën Acadiane, 1978. Quite late in the Dyane's model life a van version was derived from it, replacing the 2CV Fourgonnette. It remained in production until 1987, 4 years after the Dyane itself was discontinued.

Apollo: You’re too later, Superdorks! You'll never stop me now! Chaos: That’s where you’re wrong, evildoer! We WILL stop you, with the powers of: Evangeline: Friendship! LaLa: Harmony! Jacks: Incredible violence. Chaos: And love!

“I believe there are far more possibilities than happily ever after or tragedy. Every story has the potential for infinite endings.”

Evangeline as Clara, Jacks as the Nutcracker, and Apollo as the Mouse King inspired by the beloved tale of the Nutcracker and the Mouse King 🏹🩷

Jacks: With your wife, actually.

Folk Ways for an Acadian or French Canadian folk practitioner

I want to start an ongoing list of Acadian and French Canadian religious and popular folk ways that I've been learning about for the last two years. My references will be at the end for further reading!

Blessing a candle on Candlemas (Feb. 2) with holy water will allow you to have a light whenever there is sickness and storms hitting your home. Traditionally on Candlemas, the light is lit and guided through every room in the house to bless all its corners for the year. It was even paraded in the farmer's fields. (Dupont)

The 25th April, on St. Mark's Day, is the ideal day to bless your fields or garden before putting in the first seeds. This ensures the growing food to be blessed by this saint. (Maillet)

Animals have been known to speak in human tongues on Christmas Eve. (Maillet)

If you feel that nothing is going right in your day, your homemade bread sours, or general bad luck assails you, simply boil some holy medals. (Dupont)

The first three days of the month of August, the ocean waters are known to have healing properties, and it wouldn't hurt to dip your feet in it. (Chiasson)

It was customary to trace crosses on windows using holy water when a storm would hit. (Lacroix)

To find a lost object, simply toss a rosary or a pocket metal rosary over your shoulder. The foot of the cross will point in the direction where your lost object might be located. (Dupont)

To have good weather on your wedding day, be sure to hang your rosary on your clothes line the day before. (Dupont)
