And in fairytale news…

For the past year someone in Fohren, Germany had been stealing people’s shoes off their doorsteps at night. The theif has now been caught, and she’s a fox. Like, an actual fox. http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,629778,00.html

The article is not specific as to whether she was a magical or enchanted fox, but one can assume.

Best line in the article: “Count von Kesselstatt had the retrieved shoes laid out in the palace on Wednesday so that the townsfolk can come and collect them.”

Really, Germany? Seriously?! You are a fairytale land — I am sure there are elves & unicorns there. At least, you know, before the Holocaust.

    Was the fox wearing a different pair of shoes every day? Any matching handbags missing?
