As you know Mother's Day is this weekend. I wanted to get something small for Jorge's mom. She has had a hard life and I think she deserves something on Mother's Day.
The other day we were over at her house and she was cooking gorditas for us. She was about to drop the dough in the oil and before she did she went to get a button up shirt and put it on backwards as a make shift apron.
Sitting here in the house thinking about what to get her, a light bulb went off! I can use that table runner and make an apron. It is a thick canvas like material that would be perfect for an apron.
I did just that. It took me about 3 hours but I made sure to make it look as nice as possible. Here are the results.
No money spent yet a thoughtful gift. Anyone need an apron? :)

That is adorable! What a thoughtful gift! When Target had this line, they actually had an apron that matched. I have it in my kitchen.
Such a thoughtful gift. She'll love it, I'm sure.
You need to start making a list of all the things you're learning in Mexico.
