Do you know what it is?
Have you seen the Traveling Susan Apron?
(borrowed from Susan’s blog)
It started back in March 2012. A wonderful lady named Susan who blogs at My Mother's Apron Strings creates an apron each month and gives it away! The winner of the March apron was Meggie. She decided to keep the apron for a couple of weeks, write some of her experiences in a journal and then send the apron and journal on to a blogging friend. So far is has been to these sweet ladies in places around the world…
Meggie at Meggie On The Prarie in Texas
Elaine at Pear Tree Log in England
Scarlet at Tales From Beyond The Nook in England
Jane at The Maple Syrup Mob in Ontario, Canada
Deb at Just Cats in Ontario, Canada
Susan at Just Sayin' in Ontario, Canada
and Linda at A La Carte in Georgia.
I feel so honored to be chosen to join this Sisterhood and use this special apron. I plan to take good care of it…and pack it in my suitcase to go along with me on my journeys!
Yes…the Traveling Apron is getting ready to travel by car!
So I got busy baking magic cookies for the trip!
These are made using my mother in law’s recipe and they are the BEST!
Oh…the ones on this plate are all round?
Wasn’t there another plate with odd shapes?
HERE they are!
Thanks Linda for this wonderful honor and for all of the sweet gifts you sent along!
The apron is happy here in Florida with the palm trees!
I’ll check in again soon with updates!
Happy Weekend!

A Perfect Fit--Welcome, dear Sister. I've been amazed at who the apron chooses next and you're no exception. In fact, I'm always teary-eyed to see where it flies to next knowing how a simple pair of apron strings that my mother gave to me on my wedding day has given me a lifetime of friendship with such beautiful, creative women. It really does have a magic sense!
I have my grandmother's Snickerdoodle recipe and it also contains shortening, which is how I make them in spite of my love for butter! XOXO

What fun and I love the design on the apron. :)
Welcome to this fabulous sisterhood. It truly is inspiring. Just this morning I made brownies topped with toffee bits and pecans and a lentil, chickpea, butternut squash soup.
With the cooler weather I hope to spend more time in my kitchen!

That is so neat. Where will the apron travel to next I wonder! Snickerdoodles, don't hear about them too often. I remember making them as a kid.
That is so fun! And how sweet to send along the extras. I bet your hubby will enjoy the desserts that come from the cookbook :)

Well that is a cute idea and you look adorable in the apron.
What a beautiful apron and I love Meg's idea to put a journal with it and pass it on. What an amazing surprise it will be as it makes it way around the world! Definitely will brighten the day of whomever receives it. Hope you are having a fab weekend!
Very fun! You look great in the apron by the way. Snickerdoodles are some of my favorite cookies!
I have the same pattern for children's aprons but this looks great on you - easy as can be - have fun writing the journal!
Adorable apron and the cookies look delish. Snickerdoodles are my son's favorite so I've made them many, many times. Cute photo of the cookies in the oven!
