It’s cold here in North America in the winter, and my tile floors are frigid enough to turn my toes into popsicles. Worse, if my feet are too cold for too long, I get toe cramps. Don’t you just love it when that happens? Then I have to all kinds of weird dance moves and contortions, trying to bend my toes back toward my feet to get the cramp to release.
