sseko sandals

I get a lot of flack for wearing my gray TOMS at school, but I love them. And I love that my purchase of them provided someone else in need with their own pair of shoes. So, a few months ago I was reading a blog and first learned about Sseko Sandals. . Sseko is a Ugandan based business that employees women to help fund their education. Go to the website and read the stories...you won't be sorry! The thing I love about these sandals is that you can change out the straps and tie them a plethora of ways. I just ordered a pair this past week--plus a couple of other straps-- and I can't wait until the weather warms up and I can wear them. Here are a couple of pictures so you can see how cute and fun these are!

365 dates with Duds

This is my mom's idea for a book I should write. Per telling her about my most recent date that I had tonight, she thinks it would be hi-larious if I dated someone everyday and then wrote about it. Thanks Mom! She now thinks my life is comedic fodder. All I can say is that I guess it's good to be able to laugh at life's little mishaps and/or adventures. For my friends with spouses: please thank God that you are out of the dating scene and hug your husband or wife!!! It's scary out there :)
