Dear Manolo: Baking in Style

Dear Manolo:

I've left academia and have gone back to my true love — baking. I'm opening a bakery and need some comfortable, yet stylish, shoes with non-slip soles.

MANOLO SAYS, of the course, there are those who believe that one would be foolish to give up the golden perks of academia, such as the pleasures of frequently reading the papers in which the word "hermeneutics" appears twice in the first sentence, once juxtaposed next to the phrase "Gilligan's Island."

What? No more faculty meetings in which the professor of Marxist marketing comes to blows with the elderly Emily Bronte scholar over the matter of parking spaces. Just cupcakes with sprinkles and beautiful pastel frosting, happy children buying the sweet treats, and giant tubs of chocolate fondant in the back room.

Here is the colorful and practical Minie from the Camper ($139). Yes, it is the slightly goofy shoe, but it is also the joyful shoe, one that would give you much pleasure as you fulfill this noble dream.

Each week, Manolo the shoeblogger answers your pressing shoe questions. Ask the Manolo a question at manolo@shoeblogs.com. Visit the Manolo at shoeblogs.com.
