Apron Obsession

So with a recent trip to Jo-Anne Fabrics with a good friend and the realization that I have done a lot of my baking lately in a dress, I have become obsessed with aprons.

My mother has graciously allowed me the use of some of her adorable vintage ones, (one is purple with an adorable patch pocket in yellow with a bicycle on it!)
With my pending move-out becoming more real and closer every day (nope, no date yet) I figured I should probably have some aprons of my own. And what would be better for me than to sew them myself! So I've been shopping around for patterns, free ones if possible and I've pretty much decided I must have this one: Pretty Ditty Apron

Of course it's not free, but this one is: Sunkissed-aprons and it's super-adorable too!

 This is, of course, dependent on when I have time and patience to actually sew... and there is always the looming projects that I haven't finished yet... *coughweddingquiltcough*

we shall see :-)

Ode to my Spork

Dear Spork,
I love you. You have made my day countless times. You are not just any cafeteria spork, oh no, you have a fork and knife on one side and a spoon on the other. AND you come in "civilized colors" as your box says. Not only are you good for camping, but you make a great lunch accessory! Not to mention how you leave me with only one piece of silverware to wash instead of three. Spork, you are fabulous in so many ways. Everyone should have one of you. In fact, I wish I had more of you. Thank you for all that you do.

Love,
Me

(And thank you REI for having the Light My Fire Sporks for me to enjoy!)


I was going to add pictures of cupcakes to this post, but for some reason blogger hates me...
