Hunting for what, you ask?

Unicorns, of course!

And you can find them everywhere. Books, tea, shirts, stickers, cupcakes, costumes, notebooks, pens, memes, memorabilia, movies, shows, music, and more!

But if you want to really go in search of a unicorn, I figured I’d take a break from alchemy posts this week and tell you how. Well . . . maybe not how, exactly; I don’t think anyone can really tell you how to find a unicorn. But I can tell you how to go about it in a sporting and legal way: make sure you get your very own unicorn questing license.

Who knew, right? 🙂 I ran across this in a book and just had to look it up for myself. Turns out, as part of a clever PR campaign some decades ago, folks at Lake Superior State University devised this license (the same folks also maintained a yearly list of “Banished Words” and welcomed each spring by burning a snowman). You can check out that legacy, as well as the rules & regulations of unicorn questing, here. You can even obtain a license for yourself. Just make sure not to actually hurt any unicorns, okay? Happy questing!
