Oh ladies – do you have those favorite pair of high heels sitting in your closet? You know the ones – the ones with the red bottoms that you just can’t live without?
Did you know that high heels were originally created for men to wear? Butchers wore them in their shops so they could avoid stepping in blood. Okay – you can say it now. EEWW – can you imagine that?!
Of course, mom says that it might be kind of fun watching some big masculine men walking around in high heels. Lord knows she’s not thinking of daddy here at the Hotel Thompson. That father of mine can barely walk around wearing tennis shoes – snorts!
So the next time you put on those fabulous pair of pumps, think of how the originated. Then put them on and vogue it my friends!

Snorts – this is so very true. They are evil. I can vouch for that. I’ve seen mommy wearing them. How in the world do women do this? It’s like walking on stilts! XOXO – Bacon

Snorts – I think that’s the funnier thing – picturing men in them. I think daddy tried on a pair of mom’s one time. She asked him to ‘stretch’ them out around the house for her. I think he enjoyed them too much just between you and me – rolling around laughing. XOXO – Bacon

WOW…..didn’t know that….somehow it’s tough imagining big burly butchers prancing around in high heels but hey – why not?! I hope they were RED…..they would “blend in” well.
Hugs, Sammy

Snorts – red would blend in very well. It would definitely be funny watching men in this time period wearing heels in the butcher shop. I would snort so very hard! XOXO – Bacon
P.S. now that I think about it maybe I wouldn’t. Daddy reminded me that they may have pig … and not in a good way. Shivers

Life is full of mysteries and this was definitely one of those. I would have never thought this was how high heels were originated. XOXO – Bacon

It would be truly difficult for you to go to the butcher shop, no doubt! (Not to mention, probably against health codes but nothing personal!!) 😉

This is true. I think I’ll just stay at home in the safety of my compound here at the Hotel Thompson – snorts. XOXO – Bacon
