    Just FYI the canadian living links don’t seem to be working.

    The shoes are too cool!

    Thank you for sharing!

    Humm it seems you are correct -it is possible they are having problems with their ad servers -the page seems to hang on some advertising coming in. I’ll see if it corrects itself. Thanks for the tip and the appreciation Katharyn :)

    PS -read your blog post -I shouldn’t drink caffeine either -and love Roobios tea -steeped ’till strong -with milk it’s great -and great for you too.
