I started making goodies for Saturday's farmer's market. I had a big batch of bread dough that I was starting to mix........
Let me intervene here to say that I read an AWESOME article about aprons over at phillyfarmgirl's blog........and let me then add that again I forgot my apron.....
Anyway, on with the story.....So there I was WITHOUT my apron again, making a big batch of bread. My 2yo David was standing in just a diaper, watching me. I had the 12gallon flour bucket carefully perched on the edge of the counter. David saw the cover on the floor, so he reached up and grabbed the handles of the bucket so he could take it down and put a cover on it. I turned and stepped over to take it from him so he wouldn't dump it on his head, and he lets it drop down (upright, thankfully!) onto the hard slate floor. Did you know flour splashes??? Yep!! Covered David and I got it pretty good too. He is totally white and looks up at me and says, "Mama, wipe you's glasses!" Ha! There was nothing I could do but laugh! Oh what a mess! Actually, I'm not sure that the apron really would have helped as it was all over my face and hair and back too! Ugh!!
No! I don't have pictures! I didn't dare touch the camera with that flour everywhere!!!
