Mother…

When you’re a child she walks before you,
To set an example.
When you’re a teenager she walks behind you
To be there should you need her.
When you’re an adult she walks beside you
So that as two friends you can enjoy life together..

St Patricks Day Cobbler Apron

I thought I would share some helpful resources for your valentine family fun. Over the years our family has celebrated Valentine’s day not only as a romantic couples holiday but also as a family event. Creating fun heart shaped foods, such as pancakes and cookies and exchanging notes and cards to express our love for one another. I encourage everyone with small children to include them in this celebration. It is not just about romance, but about expressing your love, devotion and genuine care for one another.

Below are a few links to some web sites with family fun ideas that you can create with your family.

Every February 14, across the United States and in other places around the world, candy, flowers and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint, and where did these traditions come from? Find out about the history of this centuries-old holiday, from ancient Roman rituals to the customs of Victorian England.

Today my 18 year old was watching “the Chew.” A new ABC television show about cooking and eating. Which is totally her thing.  Anyway, I walked in the room just in time to catch the last few minutes, and decided the information that was shared there, would be a good item for me to share here. Most of us wear aprons for cooking, and some of us probably spend a great deal of time looking for ways to add healthy food choices to our diets, without adding big bucks to our budget. Well, here are 4 things that were shared on the show today that are suppose to add overall longevity and health to your life. And, I might add all 4 items you can find at your local grocery store for under $1.00 per serving. WOW!!

Ok I tem number one was just plain and simple psyllium husk. The chef on the show, and I don’t know her name, said she just breaks open the capsules and adds the psyllium husk to anything. This helps fill you up and keeps your digestion system clean.

Number two, was ginger water or hot ginger tea after each meal. Take your fresh ginger and steep it in water, as you would tea and drink it. Ginger is a natural diuretic and help with digestion and ph balance of your system.

Number three simple molasses. They showed it today drizzled over fresh pineapple slices, but encourage people to just add it to anything that sounded good. I cant remember specifically what the added benefits were but I have heard many people speak of molasses being a good vitamin source.

And the forth thing the showed was a Kale salad. Just Kale leaves drizzled with Olive oil and add sliced red peppers. Looked Delicious.

Over all, I thought it all looked yummy and sounded good. Very simple to prepare and cheap to purchase. Surely we can all add a couple items to our everyday diets to help improve our overall health. And, if it add a few years to our lives…..Yippy!!!

Although the official first day of Autumn is still a couple weeks away, around here the weather is beginning to change. It occurred to me that I am usually the last person to remember holiday events until they are upon me, as I am not an early shopper for anything. However, with the weather change my memory was sparked and I realized that now would be the time of year that you might be looking for Halloween Costumes, and baking items for the upcoming Thanksgiving day festivities.

So to help all of you get your shopping done early I have decided to discount all of our aprons that are created with Natural Muslin, or Fall Print fabrics. And that means almost every apron style we have is on SALE, as we create many of our great style from muslin.

During this sale you can get 10% off our Adult Amish Apron, Junior Amish, and Children’s Amish Aprons. Regency Apron, Edwardian Apron and a couple Kitchen aprons that are created in Fall colors or prints.
