My Birthday Theme — THAT PRETTY RUNNER

Still shaking off the thousands of masks I donated, and hundred or so that I sold for $2 if even…

For my birthday, I am going to buy some nice new linen fabric and sew matching aprons for my mom, sisters and I. I have been wanting this apron for a very long time, just for baking scones in the morning or not needing to change outfits to puree a special stew. Aprons are nice if you are cooking for family, trying to impress someone. I only have one mom and two sisters, no more no less, we all love baking or cooking together. It is funny how the relationship dynamic changes, my sisters are ten years older than I am so it took years to catch up and connect, siblings are not always friends sometimes you just have a different type of unconditional love. The three of us ladies are on such different paths, we do not really have a complete understanding of each others serious sides to life, but there is always love for each other no matter what happens in life. You can love people and separate your serious side of life from eating and drinking nice things on a weekend. Honestly, I completely separate anything serious from time with my sisters; light fun and relaxing is my rule. The only sibling activities we can have are eating, drinking and cooking with only us three sisters and nobody else is allowed. Even though we have different personalities and careers, mathy or sciencey or fashiony, the three of us can all bond over good food paired with wine. Cupcakes and sparkling rosé are a favorite of the three of us, as well as both of our parents Barb and John and the twin chihuahuas of course.
