…and me without a thing to show for it. Well, I have been creating, but it has been of the digital, playing-with-photoshop, pretending-to-be-a-web-designer kind. My desk has a rather nice crack from my head being smashed into it numerous times, and I had to ice my wrist down the other night – but that is more due to 17 years doing hair than my skills as a digital guru(ha!).

I have a list of to-do’s that is growing all the time, but it’s a good kind of busy-the kind that keeps you from sitting on your tush watching the boob tube, or standing in front of the fridge wondering what you can sneak while the kids are napping…THAT kind of busy.

Saturday begins another season or 2…it’s apple season (the beginning of anyway) in our local mountain village, and DH has been asked by a long-time family friend to help out again this year. Yay for apple pies every weekend! It’s also the beginning of football season, which means a Notre Dame flag will fly from our door every weekend from now til Thanksgiving weekend (and maybe for a bowl game as well…ugh!). I really don’t mind all the football “stuff”- When the armchair coaching gets to be too much, I have the ideal reason to go shopping, call my friend Sunshine if she’s not actually AT the game, go to the library, thrifting, etc…But I also like it because I get to try out new appetizer recipes each week-win/win all around!

I don’t think they make them any more creative than Kim at Olive Juice & Co…

This Apron that Kim made for the launch of Joel Dewberry’s new fabric line has swoon-worthy written all over it…

Who would have ever thought of a corset back apron? Only Kim…

This Apron is only available thru this Ebay Auction, which closes next week…This is just one of many gorgeous items (not all aprons tho-poo!) featured in the Indelible Boutique on Ebay-but this one is definitely the favorite here at Apronista.
