Bread: Who Kneads It?
For people following an “Evolutionary Diet” that bans grains and beans because humans started eating them too late for evolution to accommodate them, I had this T-shirt idea. On the top it would say “Bread.” In the middle would be a cartoony loaf of bread. And under that it would say “Who Kneads It?”
“Bread: Who Kneads It?” People won’t know if it’s a serious question, a silly pun, or an anti-grain statement. Best to be mysterious, I say.
Being at a yoga retreat in the Bahamas where the food is mostly bread and rice gave me that idea. But this place is very inspirational for T-shirts, because I had a couple more too.
A Bahamian picked up a Conch shell on the beach. Everyone’s seen those shells that you blow into to call a meeting to order, and then pass around to whomever wants to speak. But this one had a slug-like creature inside, which dangled out of the shell whenever someone held the shell up. It had one human-like eye, and another stem that looked like it would be for an eye, except that it had no eye. It also had a hard thing attached to its bottom, a kind of foot that it uses to jump around. When you put the shell on the ground again, the conch monster slides back inside.
Seeing this creature made me realize that in reality, it’s a conch world, and we’re just living in it. So on the top of the T-shirt it would say “It’s a Conch World”. In the middle would be a cartoony looking conch shell with the sluglike conch creature poking out. And under that it would say “We’re Just Living in It.”
I also thought of the yoga-related play-on-words “Om Boy.” But doing a Google search on “Om Boy” revealed that many people have beat me to that one.
