Foot Cozy Heated Slippers

Posted by kim on September 2, 2008


Foot Cozy Heated SlippersI think I found what I’m getting my mother for Christmas!

Foot Cozy Heated Slippers provide relief from tired, cold, or sore feet. Simply toss these one-size-fits-all slippers into the microwave and enjoy the comfort of an enveloping warmth combined with an aromatherapy blend of cinnamon, clove, and eucalyptus.

Foot Cozy Heated Slippers contain a removable, scented grain insert which absorbs and then releases the heat from the microwave. Foot Cozys can also be put into the freezer for cold therapy. They are also machine washable. So, sit back, kick your feet up and relax while these heated slippers transform your tired, achy soles into soft, supple feet.

Foot Cozy Heated Slippers available from Vat19.com

Sounds perfect for Mom! But not for me. I have other stuff on my Christmas list (ie a Smart Clock and a Luggage Scale, I’m serious).

What Not To Wear

Posted by kim on August 15, 2008

Jim KukralDo not wear black socks with brown sandals!

Jim Kukral receives his fair share of banter for wearing white socks with his Mandals. He even wrote a song about them. Now I’m not opposed to white socks with brown shoes, but I am absolutely appalled to see anyone wear black socks with brown shoes (black socks with shoes of any other color than black is bad news). So when I saw Jim at a conference in Boston earlier this week wearing black socks with his mandals, I seriously thought I was going to vomit. Ok, maybe the cheap vodka had an effect on me as well. But after seeing that, I’m adding an addendum to my perfect guy specifications.

Cancer Sucks

Posted by squeak on April 14, 2008

I can agree with the words “Cancer Sucks”. Not only does cancer suck in general, it really sucks watching our 20 year old son go through chemotherapy treatments. He just finished nine weeks of chemo, and the outlook looks good.

SockGuy.com will donate 20% of the proceeds on the sales of these socks to the CancerSucks.com organization to help them raise money to find a cure. CancerSucks.com is a living memo­rial dedicated and focused on raising as much money as possible for cancer research. The CancerSucks.com mission statement: “Provide a forum for those who have lost loved ones to cancer while aggressively raising money to find a cure. No one should have to go through what millions of cancer victims, survivors and those left behind have endured.”

Wear to Where these?

Posted by squeak on December 18, 2007

Mellow World C426 (Women's) - Rose Parade GreenWhen looking for new styles on Shoebuy.com I came across these Mellow World Rose Parade shoes. The description states these adorable silk flats are smooth and comfortable to walk in. While I may agree with that comment, I still wonder, where do you wear these? For one thing it’s winter here in Nebraska, and these would provide no warmth nor traction on snow and ice. I think I will leave it that they should be slippers, and not shoes. You’ll have to check them out as there are several other colors and patterns, such as Rainbow Multi and Blossom Orange to pick from.
