I have never purchased a kitchen apron before. As a kitchen apron, this is super cute, and I like the color and no issue with fit. The material is light weight but seems to be thick enough to stop some moisture going through. So far, I’ve worn it for light housework and have not gotten a large amount of liquid on it nor washed it in the washing machine.

These are so much better than my traditional “two pads joined by a strip of material” style gloves. Many of the benefits of these gloves are fairly obvious – my hands aren’t tied together (although my left hand still instinctively follows my right hand even though it no longer needs to!), I can grip spoons and spatulas to stir things without having to take off the gloves, etc. But one benefit I didn’t expect was the skeleton design which I assumed would be just a cute graphic. In fact the “bones” are made out of a high grip material which greatly reduces the danger of anything slipping out of my hands. Excellent safety idea! Handling glass casserole dishes has always felt awkward and unsafe with my traditional “gloves”, but these new gloves feel much safer. And still on safety, the cuffs cover well beyond my wrists, so no more risk of burns from accidentally touching the upper oven shelf.

Just the job! Amazingly arrived in 48hours, much sooner than I was expecting for 2nd class mail. Today’s was only my second loaf (your recipe of course) and having the lame made it much easier.
