Es Mi Problema!


He came home in a drunken stupor. She was sick of seeing him take this route. She opened the door at 4am. "You should carry your keys you know." He stubble's through the door to make it up the red stoop. He yelled in an incoherent state,"This is my house, I get home at anytime I want with or without keys." His breath assaulted her to the core. She ran and went to bed infuriated. The next day, the drunkenness had subsided and soberly he wrote her a two page letter.

Dear daughter,
I am sorry I yelled at you. I know I have a problem that I am dealing with, but it is my problem not yours.(PERO ES MI PROBLEMA he repeated).

-Love Dad

Que Tal?


This T-shirt was made for my favorite aunt, Milena, who is known by many by her signature greeting: Que Tal? She always has a smile in her face and has made it a habit to to fold her arms right on her stomach before she delivers this line. We were all watching a old family gathering we recorded twenty years ago. It was in the Dominican Republic in the country area. Milena came in on one shot with her stiff hair sprayed hair and mustard and black dress and of course she blurted out "Oue Tal." For all of you who are not Spanish QUE TAL means what's up? or what's happening? So next time you see your friends give them a QUe Tal!

Are you tooken?


This t-shirt happened in the Dominican Republic. My sister and I were by this beautiful restaurant overlooking a river. The scenery was breathtaking! The sun's rays of warmth tanned our skin a golden hue. There was a neon green bridge with wooden panels which created a pathway above the river to the restaurant/lounge. Across the bridge there was a guy who was built, caramel silky skin, green eyes, and long braided hair. He rocked shorts, a white tee, and flip flop sandals with white socks. This very confident man walked across the vibrant bridge and looked at my sister and said, "Are you tooken?" We could not hold our laughter, as we walked away from his horrible choice of words! This is how this t-shirt came about.
