I got a bug In my bonnet to make some aprons for my dear friends, the Cookie Girls. The Cookie Girls and I have been spending the second weekend in December together for the last 18 years. We met in college and started making cookies together... now we have over the years added dinners, movies and even a couple daughters to the mix. Together we have supported each other through trials and triumphs, illnesses, aging parents, sick children, TEENAGERS, marriages, divorces and I consider them to be a part of my family. I laugh with them, cry with them and pray for them regularly. We store up a lot of conversation all year long for this very weekend, and I am so blessed that they love me like I love them.
FOR CLARITY: I made one apron especially for my Cookie Gal Terri who is somewhat recently divorced and officially a wonderful candidate for a relationship. I had a dream that she got married and when I spotted the 'Young Lad Christmassy Fabric' I just had to use it for her apron.
