Just a little for the camera, Donna! No mascara though, that’s where I draw the line.

That’s a nice apron. I have an old one similar to it that I got in Germany, except the chest and front legs are the only areas covered and it’s a print. Can’t tell what’s hiding in there. I too sometimes cook without the use of an apron because I am quite a neat cook, but that doesn’t help when something bubbles and splatter on occasion. Reminds me of my grandmother in the kitchen in the ’60′s. I’d like to know where to buy one. Love the shoulder cover. The dinner looks wonderful and I’m certainly making the eggs in a few days. My husband loves them pickled. Maria, do I detect a little makeup on that pretty face? All I can say is “Move over Martha Stewart!”

Aww I didn’t realize how much I missed pickled red beet eggs. I wonder if I can get my family to eat them. I just got some wonderful beets from our farmer’s market (oh the benefits of Florida this time of year). I might have to make some for Easter! Thanks for stirring up wonderful memories for me

Your Easter dinner looks wonderful and the Apron is cute. The white does look nice and crisp and accented by the red trim. However, as mentioned previously I would need some kind of print as I am always spilling something on me in the kitchen.

Love the photos! I like the apron too. I think it would great with a patterned or darker fabric to hide pesky kitchen stains.

I would buy that apron. It is very flattering.

I love the term “extreme simplicity” regarding cooking. I think that is how you could describe my cooking style for the last 20 yrs! I always thought of myself as a lazy cook, but your phrase sounds much better!

Wow! Fantastic spot on The Doctors! Love the “shifting” your dollars concept. I’ve been trying to make the same point with friends and family for years. (Plus, you were wearing my favorite color!)

Re: Ham….I would have loved seeing you use a LOCAL, free-range and heritage breed ham from a farm using organic methods. They’re also much less expensive than those from Heritage Foods.

Re: Apron….Oh, yes, I would buy at least two! I tried to get my mom to go into apron production with me, but she has yet to bite.

I love how the apron is not so square around the chest and that you don’t have to have it hang over the neck. And it’s cute!

Nice segment on The Doctors. Way to get the points across!

Love the apron, too. It would also work when I paint with the kids in my preK class–or make bread with them! I too, would prefer a print (vintage–to go with the style).
