Dressing For Work

I realize that this title could go in lots of different directions! However, I was thinking of the work that takes place in our kitchen! I work part-time outside of the home, but I spend a lot of time at home, in my kitchen. The kitchen truly is my favorite room in the house. It is the hub of our family activity and generally where my guests spend a lot of time.

So, this brings up the topic - do you wear an apron when you are in the kitchen? I've had a few aprons in my cooking career, and generally when I'm cooking, I'm wearing one! I think the apron has a couple of different benefits:

1. The obvious - it keeps us clean! I'm very messy. Need I say anything more?
2. It makes me feel better about what I am doing in the kitchen.

Last year I made a new apron out of some darling fabric. There is just something about that apron that makes me want to cook! The apron is cute and fun! If you haven't worn an apron recently, try one on! Or better yet, go get a new apron!! There are so many darling aprons out there, it might just put a little bounce of spice into your cooking!

Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me. I never use an apron, and all of my shirts are stained. Go figure!
