Argh, the plagues, they are truly not fantastic. But they did indeed entertain.
That was wonderful. I am astounded that such shoes exist.
Happy Passover!
What floors me about the plague shoes is, if you click the link to Zappo’s, each shoe has a great rating and people raving about how good looking it is. Are these people blind and/or insane?

Um…does she realize she’s got 11 plagues there?
Madonna mia! La fannypie is correct! I DO have eleven plagues. Out of the deep dark depths of my subconsious, I must have added “Wild Beasts” to the litany of plagues.

The plague-shoes, they are the footwear choice of the demons of Hell, are they not? Certainly they stop the heart with their irredeemable ugliness.
As it happens, the Ten Plagues are also available in chocolate, from the catalog of “The Source for Everything Jewish”. The Annalucia, she would not have believed it had she not seen it with her own horrified eyes.
