Immense gratitude to the immeasurably talented Jacqui Caulton for her gorgeous design and unwavering professionalism. Thank you to the lovely Adele Nozedar for the excellent section on unicorn spells and charms.

Thanks to the amazing Team Unicorn: Catherine, Dean, and Helena. Thank you to Oli M. for conjuring the initial idea and title.

A very warm thank you to my mom and Aunt Marie for sharing the family pancake recipe, and to Rebecca for sharing her glorious rainbow cake recipe (and for first sharing the result at my daughters weather-themed 1st birthday party). for the unicorn enthusiasm.
