Thank you That picture was taken many years ago at the Pettey reunion in Nacogdoches. It's of my grandfather's brothers and sisters.

Excellent and very comprehensive!
Friends of mine went to St Peter's school, York, Guy Fawke's school. November 5th Bonfire Night has never been celebrated there.

I haven't seen Christmas cake picks here last time I looked at a confectionery store. I agree they're fun. Enjoyed reading your article!

Never knew about One Direction until I read this :). This is a great article about getting creative with ornaments :)

I didn't know about the Hallmark Christmas ornaments. Great idea!

This is such a wonderful book. I do recommend it. I love the fact that it's a game too now. :)

LOL You can practically see my writing schedule from there. Yes, Tips and Tricks will be the next one up. I was hoping to do it today, but finishing this one too so long. It'll be a very tomorrow sort of thing now.

I love the feature image of this story, each time I see it on the front page it gives me a warm feeling. There is nothing like family and our historical roots. :)K

I did so very much and now I think we can expect 'Tricks and tips after 300 articles on Wizzley'? ;-)

@katiem2 remember to sharpen all your garden tools and pruning shears. Making clean cuts when you prune all your shrubs, bushes and roses makes for happy healthier plants.

Actually physically having it as draft in Wizzley - this is the fifth day. But I've been making notes for a couple of weeks. As soon as I saw how close I was getting to 300 articles, I figured that I should do something special. <3

I'm glad that you liked it.

wpbflatsman, This is the very reason we wanted to do this gig, to make men aware of the style option in footwear, one we feel to be suitable and desirable by anyone who enjoys comfortable stylish footwear. I do hope more men come to note how they themselves can incorporate flats into the wardrobe making a complete well rounded look. Thanks for stopping by and adding to the conversation, great to hear from you. :)K

Holy Mackerel! How long did it take you to write all this up? Well done!

I am in my 60's, straight w/kids/grandkids. I wear ballet flats here in Florida with no problem. I wear these shoes for two reasons: 1.) Today, mens shoes are about as stylish and comfortable as a telephone booth. They're chunky, clunky, boring colors, expensive and not too comfortable. 2.) Ballet flats completely reverse the first point. I regret it's taken so long to discover the most comfortable and stylish shoes in existence. I feel good wearing them in public and don't mind taking the lead on changing how society reacts to men wearing flats. Finally, let's face it--with a mile-long list of problems we face (crime, economic/social stress, drugs, alcohol, etc.), please--give me a break--let's lighten up, huh . . . .

Additionally, good job, "B.", I liked your responses. We know each other via Flikr.

Pinkpanther, Thank you so much for you support Torybri and I had a great time collaborating on this project of awareness. The thing EVERYONE needs to understand is this, flats are flexible, versatile and comfortable all the while looking good with just about anything....in fact I think they do look amazing with everything. Color is a big deal now. It is trendy to wear a popping yet contrasting colored shoe with anything you wear. In other words clashing! How much fun is that? I know right, love it! Again thanks pinkpanter.
