COMIC: UNICORN LAKE

We've all experienced it when you first move to Denton. Exclaiming something along the lines of, "Unicorn Lake?

While there are a few respites from chain stores that we do enjoy, there certainly aren't any unicorn statues or anything mythical/mythical. Resident Denton artist, Anna Ryan, explored these sentiments in comic form in the two-panel strip below.

COMIC: BOTTOMLESS MIMOSAS

Bottomless mimosas are both a blessing and a curse - especially if you're the type to not feel alcohol until the moment you stand up. We've had brunches before when that glass (or flute or whatever) just seems to never go empty. Every time you turn around your half full glass become completely full once more. And the mimosas at local fave The Chestnut Tree are even more impressive than that. The abundance of flavors makes for a different glass every refill and ability to serve yourself means that you won't feel ashamed about your mimosa-habit every time the waiter walks by and side-eyes you. Anna Ryan knows what we're talking about. The comic and artist put together this 5-panel comic strip documenting a meal with accompanying mimosas at The Chestnut Tree. She showcases what may be an all-too-familiar scene that may occur if your bottomless mimosa glass gets refilled a few too many times.
