Guests

Capucine

What they say

Coming in: "Bonjour. I have exactly enough money and extremely high standards."

Pleased: "Nine and a half. Nobody gets ten. Okay fine, ten."

So-so: "Six. Maman's is a six too, so that's not an insult."

Disappointed: "Three. But I like you, so three and a sticker."

How they order

Capucine has 6 written orders of their own. A few of them:

"The red jam one. Rolled, because triangles are for babies. Golden, NOT brown. I will check."

— that is La Rouge-Gorge

"Banana coins and butter, rolled like a sleeping bag. Not too cooked, I have a wobbly tooth."

— that is La Banane Dorée

"Chocolate. And banana, so it counts as fruit. Maman said a triangle is 'reasonable'."

— that is La Gourmande

After the first ten days they also make up orders in their own voice. Not sure? Ask "Pardon?" or "What do you mean?": see orders.

Crêpes they love

Their face is on those pages of the notebook.

Presents from the pedlar

From Yann the pedlar's cart: a pencil with a unicorn and a sheet of gold stars.

Friendship and presents

Spoiler What Capucine brings as you become friends

As you become friends:

  • A regular: "You are in my notebook now. On the GOOD page."
  • A friend: "I drew you. You have a crêpe for a hat. It is a compliment."
  • A dear friend: "Maman says I talk about you too much. I said: eight out of ten."
  • Family: "When I am big I will work here. I have already told Maman."

New in the notebook: Le Clown, in felt-tip, with a page number. She has given herself ten out of ten.

Guaranteed to come in on day 2 and 8 of the first ten days.
