Every summer, my neighborhood raises money by dumping 2000 rubber ducks into a canal so they can “race” to the finish line. It’s ridiculous. It’s adorable. It’s yellow.

So I wore my own yellow and watched those little duckies float along. They trained so hard, after all. Our duck didn’t win, but we still soaked up the cuteness and then went out for dinner and a movie. So, you know, everyone’s a winner.

Allow me to take you on a journey of what goes on in the mind of a shopping Sarah.

First: “I have a coupon. I’m basically a millionaire so I’m going to get new shoes.”

Second: “Wow, these shoes are kind of ridiculous.”

Third: “But I can’t stop looking at them. Maybe I’ll try them on.”

Fourth: “They fit! But they’re still ridiculous and they match nothing.”

Fifth: “I’m obviously going to buy them.”

And there you have it. That’s how the magic happens.

I call these my “Florida” sandals because the print looks like it should be on a couch in a Ft. Lauderdale condo that was furnished in the 1960s. You probably won’t see me wear them that often (because, again, they don’t go with anything else I own), but aren’t they fun?!
