The one with the Birkenstocks?
Who says you can't wear Birkenstocks during Winter?! |
Come rain, snow or icy sleet, my husband always wears his Birkenstocks. As you can see in the picture: if it's snowing he just puts some sandwich bags around his Birkenstocks to keep his feet nice and dry.
And it seems like he has become kind of a myth among his fellow travelers.
I know someone
Because one of our neighbourhood friends had a conversation with a friend of a friend, who had a three hour commute every day to his work. My neighbour happily told him she knew someone who álso had to travel a lot and got on the train everyday at the same station.
That's when the friend of a friend got all excited and asked:
'Oh, The One With The Birkenstocks?!'
So it just goes to show: you don't have to wear tights and your panties on the outside to become some kind of superhero!
I was intrigued by the title of yours post. I used to wear birkenstocks but finally wore them out and got tired of them. But they are quite comfortable. And your husband is a superhero and that is what counts.
He deserves super hero status for sure! Thanks for sharing this at Celebrate Your Story and have a great weekend.
This is funny. Here in the south we don't get snow very often so snow clothes/boots just aren't bought. We've been know to wear plastic over our shoes.
I never thought of wearing plastic bags in winter....hmmmm....may have to try this to keep mine on all year long too. Thanks for linking up with Let's Get Real.
LOL When I saw the thumbnail picture of this post, I knew I had to check it out! I grew up in eastern NC where the winters are mostly mild. But once every 3-4 years we'd get a BIG snow of about 2-3" We didn't own boots so bread bags where out shoe covers. Ahhhhhhh the memories.... 🙂 gwingal
How funny! What a small world! This brought back memories of my Mom wrapping our feet in grocery bags before putting our snow boots on! Thanks so much for sharing with #SocialButterflySunday! Hope to see you link up again this week 🙂
Oh my goodness. He must really love his birks! Thanks for joining us at the Family Joy Linkup, and hope you'll join us again this Sunday!
