These are a few of my favorite things


Ok maybe a little more than a few.  Try DOZENS! And this isn't even all of them; I have many more in the laundry basket. 

The point is that I love socks.  With a passion. 

You see, I have chronic cold feet syndrome.
Never heard of it? It's becuase I just made it up. 
But that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Especially for me.

Anyway, I diverge.
Back to socks.

Anyone who knows me well, knows I love socks.
My roommates used to give me socks on birthday every year.
My mom used to put them in my stocking every year. Now it falls on Micah to do the same (and he did not fail this year).
My mom even sent them in a random package a few weeks ago.  It made me SO happy.

Socks are the go-to Christmas/Birthday gift if you want to get something cheap and easy for me.
A word of advice: Target. $1 socks. My absolute favorite kind.
Now go, stock up. Buy all you want and give a few pairs to me every year on my birthday.
I will be absolutely thrilled if that was all you got me.

It can be any type of sock.
I am no respecter of socks.
I like...

Black socks, white socks

Striped socks, dotted socks

Star socks, heart socks

Socks with bows

Or socks with RAINbows

Mismatched socks are completely fine

Boy sock are sublime

Socks with moons

And ARGYLE, yes argyle.
My personal favorite.

Sparkle socks for fancy events

Socks of all sizes
Knee socks, tall socks, medium socks, ankle socks, and short socks.

My choice today? Why the mismatched puma socks, naturally.
I remember the day I bought these. Who I was with, what the weather was like, what other things I bought along with these.  Yes, it's a little crazy, but I love these ones.

And I love ALL my socks. It pains me to throw away socks that have served me so well just because there is a hole. Or when I lose one! Oh, the anguish!

Well, I'm guessing you all are a little socked out for today.
Now don't get me started on BOOKS.
That's another post for another day.

Till next time...

  2. The above message was from Samuel. But it's true, he really values socks. I think this post could be a children's book. Very Dr. Seuss like :)

  3. I was going to say the same thing about Dr. Seuss. I also saw some of the ones I bought you...years ago. Good to know they are getting well used! And yes, I am starting to be converted to cute socks. I have hit up the Target socks recently, but they are now $1.5o.
