Can't Cook? Look Like You Can!

Can't boil and egg? Always burn the toast? Is KD your best dinner time friend? Then this apron (aka Domestic Goddess Disguise), is the perfect solution to win the approval of those who stop by around dinner time. Just because you can't cook doesn't mean you have to look like you don't.

 

Thankfully the escape clause is right there on the pocket, just in case you cause any cases of food poisoning, "Can't Cook" gives you deniability (wink).

Thursday's For the Birds

Happy Thanksgiving to all my American readers! Since many of you are likely crowed around a big bird "the Turkey" today, I thought we'd have a little birds theme in my apron discoveries. Grab that platter of mashed potatoes and jump up to your computer screen to find some "tweet" ones today. :)
