		<description><![CDATA[Thanks, Sharon! We spent several years in the tropics, too, and I have to admit that, often, I&#039;d rather be barefoot. ;) But I also get really COLD in the winter...and really cute boots make it easier to actually cover my feet! Thanks for stopping by, today...wishing you a wonderful week!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh yeah! I learned early on that what I do gets mimicked right back at me. OUCH!
I love your blog title/url! Funny, the post I linked up with Crystal today is about my daughter&#039;s bare feet. She hates to wear shoes! (Actually, all of my kids do and so do I. I guess it is a side-effect of living the first years of one&#039;s life in the tropics.)]]></description>
