LOL @ phoenyx - I do the SAME thing! But I noticed when I had on the apron I was more likely to wipe on the front....especially when I hung a dishtowel in the strings.
I always wear an apron, otherwise I do a great job of ruining my clothes with grease, juice, and whatever else I can splatter, spill, or dump on myself. I still manage to be like Phoenyxstarr, and have flour prints on the sides of my legs, or on my backside when I am done cooking! I also manage to get things in my hair, my husband gets a good chuckle most of the time. Maybe I need coveralls?
I really should get in the habbit of wearing an apron. My mom gave me one. But for some reason, I just never wear it. They really are more convenient.
I've worn aprons forever! And I enjoy making all kinds of them as well. Keeps the clothes clean for sure!! I would be lost without one on while cooking/baking, etc.
Wow, I am interested in knowing how your masterpieces turn out. Maybe you could create a thread that would showcase your aprons

I've never used an apron though, except when in school where it is really a policy that anyone holding a knife and a ladle should wear one. That's minus points if we're ever caught without it. Maybe I'd get used to it.
I have a habit of wiping my hands on my behind, hubby always says you can tell when I've been baking because I have floury handprints on my butt.
So, unless I wear an apron backwards, it wouldn't do me much good. lol

That reminds me of the time my husband and I went grocery shopping together (a rare occurrence) and I got some flour, and I guess I held it close to my body and some bits of flour got on my shirt. He said, "You look like you've been baking a pie in the aisle!"
