Pixilated is an adjective that means eccentric or whimsical.

Our word of the day comes from the word pixie whose precise origin is unknown. But we do know that a pixie refers to a cheerful, mischievous sprite. A pixilated person is someone with a similar disposition.

Our neighbor Jenny was a sweet lady with a pixilated personality. She had a habit of surprising us every year with a brand new snow man in our yard — on top of that she managed to do this in July.
