Beansoup Aprons Gets You Cooking In Style This Holiday- Review + Giveaway!
"A family that cooks together, stays together."
Frankly, I have no idea who said this quote, but this is something that I heard during my entire childhood. From my grandmama's house to my own, it seemed to echo- especially during the holidays. I learned to love to cook by watching my mother and grand mother chop veggies like nothing I've ever seen.. and take ingredients to form a recipe to create these wonderful meals. They would let me help, but "the kitchen is no place for a child" would start shortly after prep was over, and the stove went on.
As an adult, I now love to cook and I love letting my children help.. with everything from chopping and mixing to stirring and flipping. They know which meals they can help with, and which I'm more cautious with, but they also know that when they get older they'll be able to help much more.
During the Holidays is when I start to cook the big stuff.. I cook everything under the sun, including my mother-in-law's Apple Crisp. It's our way of ringing in the holiday season. Brian hates when I cook or bake big projects. I tend to get something on me, somehow- it's inevitable. I cannot tell you how many shirts I've ruined because oil popped in a pan, or because I was tasting something, and it spilled through that hole in my mouth. Apple Crisp, (although one of the easiest recipes I make), seems to leave me covered in flour.
This year, I happened to learn about a great company called BEANSOUP APRONS. Beansoup Aprons create beautifully crafted kids aprons, and matching adult aprons- perfect for the family that cooks together! The fun, bold prints are wearable and washable, so you don't have to worry about anymore spills or mishaps. What's even better is that your little one is protected too, so they form great habits early. Reinforced with double stitching, the adjustable cotton kid-sized aprons at Beansoup are sure to delight your biggest helper.
Don't worry, if you're not a family that likes to cook together, perhaps you'd have more fun using the adorable cobbler aprons. From gardening, to art, and yes- even cooking, cobbler aprons have three pockets to make carrying all of your essential tools easy as pie.
The mother and child sets make a great gift idea this holiday season for Mom, or even for Grandma's House!

I signed up for the BeanSoup newsletter, and I would choose the Vintage Firetrucks pattern. It would be for me and for my toddler who loves to help in the kitchen.
Thank you!

Share something about your holiday cooking traditions: The whole family joins in, always.
Do you include your kids? Absolutely!
What's your favorite recipe?
Amaretto Chocolate Cheesecake
What's the one dish that celebrates the arrival of the Holiday Season (like my mother-in-law's Apple Crisp)??
If Egg Nog qualifies, that is what I choose. If not, it's Pumpkin Pie!
Thank you.
