A New Apron

As a general rule I feel that men should NEVER buy their wife anything such a blender, vacuum or whisk for birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries and the like. This year I actually asked Alex to get me one such similar item for Christmas.

The Flirty Everyday Housewife Apron by Momo's Retro Fashions is super cute. I am constantly spilling stuff on myself when I cook and an apron would help. I tried to prevent the spills, by wearing Olivia's apron. Let me tell you it is a sad state when you have to wear your 4 year old's small little apron...and it is not very cute at all. Basically, I just look foolish, although I am sure it gives my husband a good laugh. If I must cook, I sure would like to look fashionable and sassy. The aprons are inspired by a 1950's pattern and the fabrics are great. I also think it is great the gal that makes them models the finished product on her site so you can get a feel for how it will fit.

I really hope Alex comes through or I may just have to buy myself one.

Edit: The gal modeling the aprons is the maker's daughter. :)

Edited after Christmas: What a great husband I have, he came through with the very apron featured in the blog. Thanks babe.

OPI


You can tell the state of my life by my toes. I know it sounds crazy. Regardless of the season I like my toes to be painted. It just makes me happy. If you see me and my polish looks chipped you can know it is driving me crazy because I don't have the time to polish them. If you see me with no polish on my toes at all, it is almost as if you have caught me with my pants down. If I have no polish on my toes, you might want to say a prayer for me because my life must be REALLY crazy and I might be practically insane. :)

My favorite nail polish is OPI. It is a splurge purchase...funny I consider a$5 purchase to be a splurge purchase, but regardless it is my favorite. It is the little things in life...right? It goes on smooth and lasts a very long time. They come out with new colors for different seasons so your toes can match the typical colors of the seasons. Love it.
