i'm the hostess without the mostest....

What is a chef/host without a cute apron?  Nothing!  And therefore, I am... not a chef/hostess.  Le sad.

Just saw these awesome aprons (in "Hostess" and "Chef" styles?  Because they cannot be one and the same?  Clearly, I have much to learn.)

  

So chic!  So cool!  So I-Must-Have-One!  I think these three are my favorite styles, (I am also a huge fan of the third style in the red&white and black&white options.)  I like that they have pockets, too.  Very handy (GET IT!  Hand??  Pocket?!?!?  HAND??!!)

 

And look!  For the men!  You know, I would say the cow dissection one is perfect for grilling... but grilling is a messy business, and a white apron is just silly.

Anyways, aprons by Jessie Steele.  Matching oven mitts, pot-holders, and rubber gloves are also available.

most wanted: one tea kettle

These one Tea Kettles from Vessel Ideation, Inc. ONLY shows it's awesome design when filled with hot liquid! How cool is that?!?!? AND you put it's little magnetically attaching trivet that allows you to safely place it on the table once heated.....
...... now, if only someone can tell me where to buy & assure me it costs less than my kidney, I'd be much obliged.

most wanted: hemp pendant globes

DIY Project - I think these would be AWESOME in my dark, unlit stairwell! Will solve the whole "need to run electricity to ceiling" and "how to get up to 2nd floor ceiling above stairwell" minor issues later.
