Hippie Feet

I have never really thought twice about driving barefoot. But when I got in my car tonight and immediately kicked off my shoes as usual, I let out a big sigh and just thought:

Bare Feet.
How great.
All year round. 
Yay.
If you’re coming from a hard- days work, a black-tie event or a soccer game, kick off your flip-flops, dress shoes, heels, boots, clogs- whatever as soon as you get in your car to drive home. It’s such a treat and one of those little things that just makes you smile and feel all happy about your day.
Here’s to hippie feet.

Named After A Stove

A friend of mine was raving about Potbelly Sandwich Works this week. After poking around to get some info. about this company, I am wondering how I’ve been to Chicago so many times and not eaten here. 

Potbelly is the kind of place anyone would love to nosh. The locations are all chucked full of antique and kitschy decor that’s authentic. They have yummy fresh food for super-affordable prices, are known for great service and being family friendly, they have live local music and do a ton of charitable work. How fab is that for a company who’s keeping it real even they have grown to 200 stores and counting?
Kind of makes you think it’d be fun to moonlight as a sandwich maker just so you could hang out with these peeps for a while. 
My next visit to Chi-town? Yeah, I’ll be visiting the original Lincoln Ave. spot for sure!

In Honor Of March Madness

I thought something I read in the Wall Street Journal today would be a fun sports snippet to pass on.

According to a 2008 poll from Referee Magazine, (Yeah, I didn’t know there was such a publication either until today) 67% of referees think coaches don’t know the rules.
No wonder why tempers flair up and people get so feisty. Thankfully though- that’s all part of the entertainment.

STAND UP

Check out this brave (and might I add handsome:) young man speaking up for his rights this week at the State House in Vermont. His short speech is around minute 43 in part 1.

Gay, straight, black, white, city, country, old, young, big, little- whatever is close to your heart and you are passionate about; STAND UP FOR YOURSELF AND WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN. It will make a difference.
Happy Spring!
