And a sunflower to boot.

The idiom to boot, meaning in addition or besides, has nothing to do with footwear. This sense of boot is left over from the Old English b t and Middle English bote, where the word meant an advantage or something included in a bargain, and the phrase to boot has been in common usage since the time of Old English.
