I just found this contest today, and it ends tonight at midnight.  So hurry and enter!!

Brandi of Mountain Morning Homeschool is giving away The Apron Book:  Making, Wearing and Sharing a bit of Cloth and Comfort,  by EllynAnne Giesel.  You can also read more about EllynAnne Giesel's love of aprons at her blog:  http://www.apronmemories.com.  

You can read more about Brandi's contest and her entry rules HERE.  But as I said, the contest ends tonight, so hurry!! 

I love aprons, although I confess I rarely remember to put one on.  I have some vintage half-aprons that my Grandma made, and my Mother passed on to me.  I love how pretty and soft they are, but most of the time when I cook and bake, I need a full apron.  I'm very messy in the kitchen.  My favorite apron is a soft canvas one with herb pictures my husband bought me on one of our early Anniversaries at a botanical garden.




There it is, stretched over my pregnant belly.  And yes, my back splash and counters are truly a melon/orange color.  Not as light as cantaloupe, nor as pink as salmon, but not fully orange, either.  The walls are peach, and the sink is avacado green.  We have some updating to do.  But I love my cupboards ... although I wish I had more!!

Trusting in Him,
April
