Looking for Pink Unicorns? Click Here!

Sorry, I couldn’t resist.  My daughters (the middle one in particular) are girly girls and whenever the evil Starbuckian Empire came out with a hipster drink that was a pink sparkly unicorn, they had their mother and I running around town trying to find one.  Nobody drinks the thing, of course – I hear it’s gross – they just need to take pictures with it for Snapchat.

We struck out, it was sold out everywhere we went.

Now I Will Believe That There Are UnicornsSince I was looking for new t-shirt designs anyway, we designed our own “pink unicorn” (although it is available in different colors). Everybody here knows The Tempest is a special play in my house, not to mention a special bond between my daughters and I.  I’ve often used “Now I will believe that there are unicorns” as an example of my favorite Shakespeare quote, dating to long ago when I was in college and we (well, the drama group) did The Tempest. For three days, I was enchanted. While I translate it to people as more of a Shakespearean, “Well! Now I’ve seen everything,” I personally think of it more as an acknowledgment that you never know what wonders the universe will drop at your doorstep, so always keep your mind open to the possibility that a unicorn could walk around the corner.

I hope everybody likes it.  I was getting so tired of dark on light and light on dark, I wanted to try something bright and colorful that my girls would like.
