Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for May 25, 2014

just Dana missing the post again. wait for it.

Brand new box of Crayola Crayons: white, bleached eggshell, glacier, arctic, ghost, baby powder, lace, vanilla, Papal smoke. Yup, all here!!!

She finished this one ahead of schedule. I saw it with my own two eyes! So naturally it’s this weekend that the server breaks…

I’ll check back later.

Looks good now. Wonder where Phoebe’s dad got shorts to fit Marigold?

Firefly nice mlp reference because firefly = rainbow dash = coolness so yeah that’s a cool statement

Love his t-shirt!

Proper dad shorts have cargo pockets…

How can you grill oat?

You can’t take the oats from me!

Whew! For a second there I thought Marigold said that he was grilling her some delicious cats! Nancy (AKAkitty1802)

Don’t be mad, be glad, Phoebe…they could be sporting Utilikilts, right Dana?

Unicorns make everything cool.

He’s wearing a firefly t-shirt!

Unicorn in “dad” shorts, now I’ve seen everything.

Phoebe’s parents are tricky people.

I’m more impressed that the dad is interacting with Marigold even when Phoebe’s not around.

Pretty sure her dad (“Phoebus”?) was leader of the nerd herd when he was in school.

So what kind of shorts would Phoebe like to see him in? Mom shorts? How about a mankini?

Nice sunglasses sir! It seems almost everyone’s wearing shorts. But do you wear shorts under your skirts sometime Phoebe? Just asking.

Are there oats in veggie burgers?

Oats, Oats,How tasty thou art!— From Spearhorne’s epic poem, quoted by Marigold yeterday.

Is dad serving Oat Cuisine?

This has to be the most ridiculous Marigold has ever looked.

Marigold’s shorts…complete with belt no less. Too cute. And I love Dad’s calm “Maybe you’re the one who’s not cool.” A lot of kids would benefit from such a calm assured parent.

The reason this originally posted as all-white was that Dad’s legs whited out everything. ::grins::

You can grill anything if you have a cast iron griddle and anything looks good on a unicorn.

Love the fact that Dad interacted with Marigold and set this up, knowing Phoebe was going to say what she always says when he wears those shorts, and that Marigold agreed in the deception.
