Yes, you're right Eric.. it gets done on Christmas. That gives me time to practice so it points in the opposite direction... I'll take the kiss though
http://www.praguemorning.cz/czech-christmas-tradition-the-throwing-of-the-shoe-TiDFibZOcl "According to one popular superstition, girls are supposed to throw a shoe at Christmas. It’s a tradition to toss a shoe over your shoulder with your back to the door. If the shoe lands pointing at the door, you will soon be married. When the shoe points in the opposite direction, the girl will remain single for at least another year. Also, all women should get a kiss under the mistletoe to have love guaranteed throughout the next year." |

Is there a limit to the amount of shoes you can throw? Like you say, best to practice upfront. Maybe there's specific type of shoes that is easier to direct. Do clogs count as shoes you reckon? Would be rather noisy, hihi, and might leave a hole in the door... hmmzzz... ANd what if the shoe lands sideways? Would that be a "maybe"? To be continued on Christmas day I spose! |

Crystal, my first try the toes pointed at the door... I was going to practice so they didn't
I have other plans for the upcoming year... I'll take the kiss so I'm guaranteed love.. but the wedding needs to wait
I don't know much about this, Blondey brought it up so maybe she knows more about the tradition. Otherwise we can research it more. To be continued

Cat, the tradition is done on Christmas Day, some say Christmas Eve Day. I am going for both, lol. Don't want to miss out on an opportunity and/or go for the one that turns out to not be tradition. Oh and not cos I'm desperate, but I think it's freaking hilarious, hihi. And don;t say you have other plans, River! That can be so, but when the circumstances are right with the right person... things can move real fast! |

Absolutely do that! And if you are to end up being Mrs X by the end of 2019 and people ask how it happened so fast, you can say, "Well, it started with a shoe!" It would sound incredibly romantic! People will immediately think Cinderella

That's funny, Crystal. What's the best day to toss a shoe? Hihi, I think we should all post our experience with the shoe-throwing. I might even record it for my Instagram stories, just for giggles, hihi. |

I forgot to add a little something for single men seeking love ......
While sipping on Christmas beer .. gather round the fire ... each single man tosses a nut into the fire .. the first nut to explode .. the owner will find love
