These 13 Comfy-Yet-Stylish Shoes Are Perfect For Healthcare Workers On Their Feet All Day

@ugg

Now more than ever, we are all incredibly thankful for our healthcare workers, and really everyone who is on the front lines of taking care of our neighbors and loved ones during this time. I don't happen to be an "essential worker," but when I talk to my friends who are nurses and doctors, the number-one complaint I get from them has been surprising to me: they can't stop complaining about how badly their feet hurt from running around all day and night. Honestly, I don't blame them.

They all asked me for recommendations on the best footwear, followed by the complaint that anything comfortable tends to look extremely plain and, to be frank, ugly. And because none of our heroes have a minute of time to be scouring the internet for the comfiest, most stylish ways to cover their feet, this list is for them.

Send them a pair (or two) and they're bound to be grateful — we won't judge if you're tempted to get yourself a matching set, too.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
