It would be easy to think every winter and spring moving forward would be like this; but we're Iowans, we know better. I have enjoyed every minute of this record-setting one though. I turned off my furnace March 1st and haven't turned it on since. However, I have added a couple extra blankets some nights. I wonder whatever happened to the diary I kept in high school?

Also, my own mother always with an apron. My parents had a restaurant business, so this was always part of her attire. My own favorite apron is one that my sister gave to me. It is red and white checked and has an adjustable strap that goes around the neck. It's so cute and helps to make me feel very much in charge when I have it on. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622056920062940292.post-80862106926021453452012-02-21T13:50:54.355-06:002012-02-21T13:50:54.355-06:00They must have been in many magazines.
