Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for June 15, 2012

not even lemon grass juice, Phoebe?

I just find the fact that Marigold can make things levitate just funny as she makes that cheesy grin at the end.

You can eat flowers in salad & different greens, so I guess grass may not be so strange – but I sure wouldn’t eat it!Love Marigold’s evil smile at the end!!

I love how Marigold’s horn sparkles when it’s doing magic. And yeah, her evil grin at the end is priceless. Wait a sec, can unicorns be evil, even a tiny bit?

Marigold can levitate things, but makes Pheobe carry it part of the way.

Kids don’t eat anything that will make them grow up big and strong without a battle.

Magic saturated grass may have a lot more kick than Phoebe’s body can take. sigh just one more thing for her Mom to ignore.

I guess that proves the unicorn’s point.

I found this about unicorn food on Google, and of course Google (probably from experts such as Dana) knows about Unicorn food:

“the unicorn may wholly refrain from eating and yet still be sound and strong, these fey creatures, by preference, feed on the most luscious and delicate foods to be found. Fern shoots, soft mosses, herbs, flowers and tender young leaves are their staples in spring and summer, while in winter they rest more and can go for longer periods without eating. However, they survive in many remote and harsh regions where food is not easily found and where choices are perhaps less appetizing. Lavender is one of their most favourite foods.”

It’s also how cows and horses do it—bacteria that eat cellulose and poop carbs.

i wonder what adventures the ants in that floating clump of grass are having
