Wow...now that's service!
ReplyDeleteNow you've done it. I've never been a shoe person--I get by quite happily with one pair of flip flops, one pair of aging cowboy boots, and one pair of sneakers. But now . . . sigh . . . Santa? Are you listening? I WANT these shoes. The Chinese ones on their web site. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteI forgot about Aurora shoes. I went to Wells College, and never had a pair because as a poor college student I couldn't afford them,...thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeletethose bottom ones are cute!
ReplyDeleteoh maya! i wore these for years and loved them. maybe i need some more :)
ReplyDeleteI love that you make wax paper envelopes for the cookies too. The houses are adorable. I see this in next years magazines on the cover!
ReplyDeleteI am from Aurora and I got a pair of those shoes about 15 years ago. They do last forever. I remember using leather scraps from their leftovers to make pouches and all sorts of things in high school. It is a great company to support. BUY LOCAL!
