while I’m on the subject of lemons

June 30, 2008 /

what dust?

Maybe you’re in the mood for a lemon drop martini made by Miss Whoorl herself? Just kidding! I wish she was serving lemon drop martinis! I’ve been trying to talk her into hosting a little cocktail party in her swanky backyard for ages. One of these days!

In the meantime, you can get a lemon apron just like Whoorl is wearing in my sister-in-law, cc’s etsy shop. I know you are probably sick of me pimping out my relatives on this site but this apron is CUTE!!!

nice to meet you

Is it not? We did a little photo shoot at Whoorl’s house yesterday and had a lot of fun goofing off. Whoorl is the best model. Too bad half the photos I took were blurry! My habit of hating to use a flash will be the end of me, I swear. But we did get a few good ones. Check them out and send cc some traffic too… there’s probably somebody who needs a domestic diva apron! We’ll get to blogher one penny at a time!

    I have the same issue with hating to use the flash, but then having blurry photos. :-( But they look really cute, both the photos and the aprons!

    You girls! I’m so jealous my two favorite bloggers get to hang out! Thanks for the pictures and letting us see a little more into your lives. I have a pretty stout apron wardrobe, but mine have to be full and cover the chest. Thats where most of my spatter ends up! I always wonder what my neighbors think when they see me in it when I’m outside. I imagine something along the lines of “oh how quaint. what a practical homemaker”, but it’s probably more like, “who does she think she is? Donna Reed?”

    First, it was wonderful getting the opportunity to meet the beautiful Ms. Whoorl and hangout with you both at the park, way back when.

    2nd, it’s a very nice apron but I have to stick with my Calphalon or John Deere aprons when I’m working the grill or smoker. Hey, I’m a dude!

    Last. I’m totally green with envy over Whoorl’s awesome looking oven/stove! When I get the $$ my electric is gone and I’m getting a stainless gas unit. Bon Appétit

    I LOVE aprons! I have several books on aprons, a collection myself, and have a bundle of memories of all the women in my family wearing aprons in the kitchen.

    I love the precious one that Miss Whoorl is modeling.

    Thanks for the compliments about my kitchen! My fabulous, yet teeny-tiny kitchen. ;)

    p.s. – Brenda, I found the missing lemon! It was under my couch!!

    I was actually just looking for a new apron and ended up buying a vintage, 50’s style one but I wan another one that is more modern and fun. And I really cannot believe I’m dissecting apron types. Anyway, I’ll go check it out.

    Oh and your model there is kinda cute.

    There’s something very beautiful about this photograph. CC is an amazing designer. Hmm maybe I should go tell her that on her board.
