@noodleann  Sorry for the delay.  That looks like a great one!  I will have to give it a go.  Thank you very much.  :-)  I like your idea of the caftan, too.  I don't own any, but that's a super idea as well.

[Ruthie-Roo]

@ECBG  Yes, I have.  :-)  I can't make up my mind.  Sometimes, the amount of choices and styles out there are just so overwhelming.  But perhaps I will eventually decide on one -- if I don't end up suceeding in sewing one up first.  Thank you for the reminder of Amazon.  It's one of my favorite sites to look on, even if it's just window shopping.  :-)

@Pliqueajour  Nope, not yet.  But I should do that -- hadn't remembered.  Thanks for the suggestion!  :-)

@ECBG

JUST SAY YES TO APRONS!  I wear chef style aprons.  My favorite is very old from my working days and it is a big print of CATHY looking very angry and screaming: 

 *STAND BACK! I'VE HAD A BAD DAY AT THE OFFICE!*  

TIP: To clean an apron soak overnight in warm water and OXI CLEAN Powder.

Keep Calm and Apron On, 

CAT

Yes...about 90% of the time. When I haven't I've ended up with a spot on my clothes.

Yes, almost always, I wear an apron.  I have different ones for different holidays, and other old fashioned ones.  I love to wear them when I'm cooking!!  It makes me happy to wear them!!!!

No, I do not cook with an apron, and I really should. Like a few others have said, I have ruined more than one clothing item that likely could have been prevented had I worn an apron. 

I've bought and received quite a few cute aprons over the years, guess it is time to bust one out and use it. I guess in  hindsight, I did not/do not want to ruin them, as they are very cute. But it just takes a couple minutes to put one on/take one off, and it is much easier to wear one than trying to remove stains, even if it is my casual everyday lounging clothes.
