And, aside from the little time I spent eating dinner, I was dancing (One of my very favorite thinks to do with my husband! He flings me around the floor and I just giggle. Love it!), chatting and STANDING in heels&#8211; without pain. Okay, maybe at the very end things got a little uncomfortable. But I think I&#8217;ve found the magic insert. Really.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s539.photobucket.com\/albums\/ff360\/Momstoolbox\/?action=view&amp;current=DSCF2806.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.momstoolbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/DSCF2806.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>No, I didn&#8217;t receive these <a href=\"http:\/\/insolia.com\/g-buy-online.html?gclid=CIyIjJeI5ZgCFQrAGgodwHJ-dw\" target=\"_blank\">Insolia<\/a> inserts for free to review. I just happened upon them at my local grocery store, paid the $8.50 and hoped for the best. Yesterday I bought a few more pairs to stick in the next several pairs of heels I&#8217;ll wear because I think they are fantastic.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than cushion your feet, these inserts redistribute the weight of your feet so the balls don&#8217;t carry it all.<\/p>\n<p>These things are awesome! Try them out and your toes will thank you. And then you&#8217;ll thank me on your next date night.<\/p>\n<p>For more good ideas, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/rocksinmydryer.typepad.com\/shannon\/2009\/02\/this-really-really-works-for-me.html\" target=\"_blank\">Works for Me Wednesday<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-207\" title=\"momflower\" src=\"http:\/\/www.momstoolbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/07\/momflower.jpg\" alt=\"momflower\" width=\"80\" height=\"40\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not too long ago I wrote about the benefits of wearing high heels when I go out with my husband.
