    I think I read somewhere that if you stuff wet newspaper inside shoes it can help stretch them. Not sure what state it leaves them in however.....
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    this recipe includes some honey, a star anise, a cinnamon stick and a few cloves - heat to simmering and simmer for about 10 mins. And the cider is a single apple variety.
