Eureka!

Once when traipsing through Versailles, in only nightrail and dressing gown, lingering now and then to look at the intricate wallpaper, Lady Carrot Caterwaul-Chattaway, arms extended heavenward in great beneficence, cigar ash falling like angel dust from the cheroot in her left hand, modestly declaimed in fortissimo, "You see, my dears, Toile is simply Art + Story!" returned to her boudoir and took up etching. It was a singular occurrence not only because she was alone or because of her anachronistic use of the plus sign, because she possessed not one etching accoutrement or even because she was trespassing. It was extraordinary because as Lady Carrot later recounted, “It was extraordinary, because I, Lady Carrot, was the first to conceive of such an extraordinarily extraordinary proposition.”

And thus, Carrot+Platypus was born.
