slo’s TUESDAY 11/25 poll - Wearing An Apron

[soccerdad72]

I think we have one somewhere in the house, but it's never been worn to my knowledge.

No I don't but to be fair, hubby cooks 80% of the time. He doesn't wear one either. We do own one, it was a gag gift to him but I don't remember him wearing it. I think maybe Mama wore one if she was dressed up for the holidays but I don't really 100% remember that. I even have a picture of her wearing pearls taking a turkey out of the oven in the late 50s/early 60s and she doesn't have one on. I have two brother's who are chefs and they wear one at work but never at home.

My DH is the one that cooks and he does not wear an apron.

I don’t remember anyone in my family wearing one when I was growing up. I don’t own one. I also don’t experience a lot of food mess when I cook that would be helped by one. Even when I was doing a lot of baking and cake decorating, it was just never a major issue. Most messes seem to impact my sleeves from my experiences, so the apron isn’t going to be a big help.

I try to remember to put one of them on when I'm cooking messy things. I definitely wear one when we're cracking/eating crab at home!

I never wear an apron when I cook, no longer own any.

I used to have several, as it was a requirement at work. I was a waitress in a mom and pop type diner, the owner was a former Mennonite so we wore skirts and aprons. A few Mennonite ladies made them and brought them in to sell quite often. I had them with all kinds of cute patterns, and several for Christmas and other holidays.

No apron, never grew up with people who wore it never really have known people who are serious about it. Generally if an apron is actually given as a gift over my life it's been to men as a gag gift or pure novelty gift mostly related to grilling. Nothing wrong with them though just not really a thing in my life.

I WANTED to say I wear my apron -- I've got several, but, frankly, I don't. I should, and I WANT to be someone who wears an apron. But I'm just not that person.

Maybe a new year's resolution...LOL

I remember my mother wearing an apron at times. Not sure that I have ever worn one. I try not to wear any “good clothes” if something messy is involved. Well, sometimes I remember about the clothing!
