Description

A couple of days before her birthday, my mum told me that she would like to have a couple of aprons “like the one you made me ages ago. I wore it so much, it has holes in it now”. So, in a sense, it isn’t all my fault that these are nearly a month late (kherm).

I bought the aprons online, otherwise they would never have got done. One is for the kitchen, the other one for my mum’s new “hobby”: pedicures. I could swear “show us your feet” is from an old children’s song, but I just can’t remember it.

    I found it in an children book I had by hand: “Zeigt her eure Füßchen, zeigt her eure Schuh` und seht den fleißigen Waschfrauen zu. Sie waschen, sie waschen, sie waschn den ganzen Tag. Sie waschen, sie waschen, sie waschn den ganzen Tag.

    very nice aprons! :-)

    “Zeigt her Eure Füße” is from an old song. But unfortunately I don’t remember the other lines…

      So glad that I wasn’t just imagining it ;-) I could probably google it, but really can’t be bothered as the pun is in this line hehe
