Apron Strings

So, I have become a ridiculously bad blogger. Sorry. I have so much to do- make crafts, clean house, water grass, cook meals, water grass, sweep floors, water grass, mediate fights, water grass, spend hours searching Etsy, water grass........

Catch that? What's Etsy you say? It's addicting is what it is. It's a completely cool marketplace for people to sell their handcrafted items. And it is an utterly addicting, time sucking, Internet destination for me.

Someone commented to me last week that technology had only served to complicate their lives and I thought to myself how ridiculous that very statement was. I can't even fathom living out her in Hill Billy Ville without the technology that so improves my quality of life. That is, until I spent the better part of this morning searching Etsy for an apron.

Maybe I should step away from the computer. To be fair, I need an apron. Due to my sincere love of domesticity (or the high gas prices, just pick one whichever one you want....) I have been cooking at least two meals a day and sometimes three. And sometimes when I search Etsy for long periods of time I let the children eat cake...... for breakfast. See, I'm a history teacher too! Wait! I have gotten off-track. I do hate it when that happens. Or not. Whatever.

Okay, I need an apron. Because generally after preparing our evening meal I have to change clothes before we eat. I may love domesticity but I did not say I was good at it. Seriously. I look as though I poured the ingredients on myself rather than putting them in the food. I have no further explanation. I can't even imagine how it happens, truthfully. But it does, I assure you.

So, I decide I need some aprons. And I have been looking at or some might say stalking a couple at Anthropology but then I thought it would be fun to check out what I might find at Etsy. It was fun. I could have easily spent about $8964.30 on aprons this morning. I didn't though. I would have liked to. But just to be clear for when my husband reads this, I Didn't.

I spent $29 and I bought this darling little thing-

Here is this gal's Etsy shop- go check it out if you have several hours to kill-

I may need an intervention. I want more aprons. Alot more.
