| Kentucky Fried Footwear |
Okay, I've been lazy, but I do have a bit of an excuse for neglecting this blog. When January and February camp out on your psyche, it's time to hit the re-set button and head for for warmer surroundings. The thought of spending another February of non-stop snow and cold had me running for the North Idaho exit in December and I have been hiding out in the company of family and old friends in the salubrious clime of San Diego ever since. Provided the snow stays in Canada, I plan to return to the shores of Lake Coeur d' Alene late next week to make ready for summer adventure.

While in San Diego I've noticed that the fashionistas of SoCal have fallen in love with new wardrobe items from the iconically delicious In & Out burger chain. Shoes with the red palm tree In & Out logo are going for as much as five times their retail price on eBay because of their popularity and chronic scarceness. Granted they look pretty cool, but for $65 bust out retail on the chain's website they were already expensive. You can buy enough burgers and fries to satisfy most any chubster for an outlay of 65 smackers. "Come for the sneakers; stay for the grub!"
Another crime against footwear now hitting stores is the long-overdue Kentucky Fried Crocs. Yes, your wait is over! Now you can have finger-lickin' good feet courtesy of the Colonel. Crocs are now available in amazing fried chicken glory (pictured) complete with authentic greasy Colonel Sanders chickeny aroma. (Your friends will smell you coming!)
Like the In & Out sneakers, these deep-fried kicks are also in short supply and are demanding premium prices. I paid up and got mine yesterday and am already basking in the jealous glances they inspire as I walk the beach.
Care to take a whiff? Yes, that delightful aroma boasts 11 secret herbs and spices (salt) and, in my case, just a hint of Tinactin. I can hardly wait to assume the title of Style King of North Idaho! Frankly, it's long overdue.
