I am a strong woman, so I can admit this: I want to be a housewife in the 1950′s. The perfect coifs. The meticulous matte red lipstick. The vacuuming in heels. Did they always look perfect? Did they always enjoy a cocktail with their husbands in the evening before dinner? The rational side of me says June Cleaver was a fictional character. Surely Ward arrived home to—at least once—-a jammie-clad wife, suffering from a migraine, with an ice pack on her head and a Rice Crispie Treat in her right hand. But in my fantasy 1950′s land, all housewives wear Jessie Steele aprons and enjoy a Manhattan with their husband at 5:15 each evening while their toddler naps. Now you, too, can own part of the fantasy! Jessie Steele is gifting one mother/daughter with a Retro Cherry apron set! One for mom, and one for daughter! Just log onto Jessie Steele, give us the name of your favorite apron pattern, and send us an e-mail to alistbabyblog {at} yahoo {dot} com, by April 20 at Noon Central. Good luck!
