I'm Ann, and I wear aprons.Posted on Thursday 26 April 2007 at 2:56 PM in Keeping The Home - Post Comment Imagine this scenerio...a mom standing over a pile of clothes (mostly shirts) shaking her head as she goes through and pre-treats the stains for the wash...hoping the clothes aren't ruined. This is me. And it's not my husbands clothes or my 7 year old sons clothes...they are mine. I'm a slob in the kitchen you see. I have ruined more clothes by cooking and cleaning than I care to count. My solution is aprons. Not those silly half things, they don't serve any purpose for me except a place to dry my hands. I need those full aprons that cover my shirts too. I had some family members that snickered at me when I registered for aprons as I was putting together my bridal registry 12 years ago. I could only find the butcher types then, but they worked...when I would wear them. Family and friends also snickered at me when I would wear my aprons so for a long time I avoided them. Today, they can snicker all they want, I wear them all the time. I personally like the frilly, pretty old fashioned ones like my great-grandmother would wear. I'm even making some aprons to give out as gifts to those very same family members who snickered at me. And you know what? I think they might even wear them! I find that I feel more feminine and productive when I'm wearing an apron (whether or not I'm actually am). And I'm not ruining as many shirts.
