The rooster says, “Cockadoodledoo!”
By Never teh BrideThis is where I’m not going to make inappropriate jokes about cockadoodledoos. The truth is that, like the French, I do like a bit of rooster in my decor. My brother used to work at a rather fancy restaurant that imported hand painted, rooster-shaped pitchers from Europe, and I made him steal one for me. He’s a good lad!
So how can you integrate a little more cock into your life? (Yes, I said no jokes…so I lied.) It’s easy enough to do being that there are scads and scads of rooster themed items out there in proper shops and at antique sales. Many people actually prefer second-hand cock (I just can’t stop!) because it’s well worn and legitimately old fashioned looking. Well-loved roosters aren’t always east to come by, however, which means that new ones are usually the way to go.
This small chest featuring a big cock would look divine in my boudoir.
Bigger is usually better when it comes to…um, roosters. This charming rooster bowl is large enough to accept whatever you want to stash in it.
Your guests will no doubt be wowed by the displays of cock on your walls. For example, this Rustic Farmhouse Rooster by Kimberly Poloson is sure to delight!
Top off the whole works with yet another cock — this time, one that will let your neighbors know exactly the sorts of things you’re into. Hey, I meant hand-hammered copper and brass, you pervert!

I often have to deal with people that want to display their cocks in the kitchen. One or two large cocks, I mean roosters, are appropiate but you can have too many cocks in the kitchen…

Yes, I’ve seen kitchens where people go a bit overboard and just have cocks everywhere! It’s really distracting. I mean, I love cocks as much as the next girl, but you CAN have too much of a good thing, right?
I do like that bowl, though. I think it would look darling on my desk. And really, I think it would brighten my workday to see such a well-formed cock in front of me while I work.

I once had a friend who decorated her kitchen with numerous framed portraits of cocks. She even had wallpaper borders of assorted cocks circling the room. The first time I saw it, I had to compliment her on her thoughtful choice of themes for the central point of her home. “I really love how you’ve adorned your kitchen with so many handsome cocks,” I told her, and she smiled shyly. “No really,” I said, “you know what a big fan of the cock I am.” Her face reddened. “I wouldn’t have thought of making my own kitchen a shrine to the cock, but you’ve pulled it off so well that I am now seriously considering erecting, uh, a similar display at my house.” She looked away and fanned her face as I added, “Yessiree, cocks cocks cocks. Strong, bold, proud cocks, so flushed and full of themselves. What’s not to love?”
Thanks for reminding me of that.

When my parents redecorated their basement a couple years ago, they had it done in French country style, with roosters EVERYWHERE. My husband took one look at it and declared, “That’s a lot of cock.”
That rooster bowl might be the perfect birthday gift for my mom.

Poor Manolo. He probably choked on his espresso while reading this.
