Culinary Favorites From A to Z, The Blog

If you love aprons, you are sure to want a A Sweet Heart Apron For Valentine’s Day and you are going to love looking at all the amazing Valentine’s Day themed aprons I have gathered on my latest apron page.  As always, the aprons are beautiful…and I am especially grateful to all the wonderful photographers at Flickr.com who allowed me to use their apron photos.

NOTE:  I have chosen to illustrate that page and this one with this vibrant apron. Isn’t it simply too groovy? It wouldn’t work in my kitchen at all but it sure is smashing! It’s a French Bull apron and is available in six assorted but equally marvelous patterns!

My latest apron find has been the amazing Jessie Steele aprons.  I was surprised to discover how many there are and that they are amongst the best-selling aprons on Amazon. I guess that last part won’t surprise you if you are aware of the popularity of this company’s aprons and the fact that they have appeared on numerous television shows and magazines.  Add to that the fact that they are beautiful and they come in so many colors and patterns and what’s not to like?

I’ve devoted my latest apron page to Jessie Steele. The page is called, Where Can I Buy The Best Jessie Steele Apron?  It features ten of the best-selling Jessie Steele aprons all of which are available through Amazon.  If you love aprons, you are sure to love these ones.  If you just want to see what Jessie Steele aprons Amazon has available, you can simply click on the following link to Amazon.

By the way, this Christmas candy cane apron is not amongst the best selling ones, I suppose because it is a seasonal product, but it sure is lovely!

This just hot off the press…Real Men Don’t Wear Aprons, Do They? It’s a controversial subject & I’m trying to get the debate rolling. If you qualify as a real man, please visit my page by clicking right here and letting us all know your thoughts on this manner. (Not to worry, ladies, I’ll allow you to participate, too if you would like to.)

If there’s no question in your mind but that Real Men Do Wear Aprons and you are actually SHOPPING for aprons for the real men in your life, I encourage you to drop by, too! You’ll find a page full of absolutely amazing aprons.

You can’t catch me because I’m wearing my gingerbread apron. Well, unless you are a fox, that is. My latest apron page is up and I’m loving the gingerbread.

I’m looking for an opinion though because I think the page may be overdone.  I’m having a hard time stepping back and looking at it from the point of view of someone who is not quite so familiar with it.

Naturally, I created it in the typical workshop with its blue theme and then added the Christmas theme. However, now I think there’s too much color and that the beautiful aprons don’t shine the way they should. I’d be thrilled to have your opinion…although I’ve almost talked myself into changing to a more neutral background. 

Thanks,
Brenda

Wow! If you haven’t already seen them you need to look quickly before the drop dead gorgeous Halloween aprons, and Halloween, are gone.  What better ‘costume’ than a Halloween apron? They’re perfect for putting you in the spirit, they’re inexpensive and they’re practical. What more could you ask?

If you are interested in buying a Halloween apron for yourself or some other Halloween fan in your life, you’ll find a large selection of beautiful Halloween aprons from eBay and Amazon and from the talented people at Flickr on my page, Do Your Haunting In A Halloween Apron.    If you would rather, you can go directly to Amazon to see their Halloween aprons by clicking right here.

Until next time,
I wish you Happy Haunting!

My food travels have recently taken me into the world of aprons and I am astounded by both the online apron enthusiasts and their wonderful collections of aprons and by the huge variety of aprons that are available. I’ve watched amazing videos on how to make aprons, discovered countless wonderful Halloween aprons and even read a lovely children’s book called My Apron by Eric Carle.

If you’ve been hearing rumours about aprons being popular again, you have been hearing correctly. Aprons are making a huge comeback and they are taking the world by storm. There are new books, fiction and non-fiction, like the best-selling The Apron Book,  and hot new aprons like those by Jessie Steele. Boutiques have trouble keeping certain aprons on their shelves and older aprons are collectible and fashionable, too.

Some of this interest in cooking and aprons may have come about because of the explosion of food programs on television and because of movies like Julie and Julia. (Read about the book Julie and Julia by Julie Powel by clicking right here. I have not seen the movie yet because I have not finished the book yet. How about you?)

Anyway, if you haven’t had your apron out in a while, now is definitely the time to dig it out and to wear it! I guess I’ll have to get mine out, too but what I would really like is to have one of the exciting Halloween aprons I found on this page, perfect for greeting the trick-or-treaters at the front door and for serving my family dinner in!  If you have a Halloween apron, I am green with envy! Green seems appropriate for Halloween, don’t you think?

Until next time,
