   lulz, awesome

3. Stacy on October 7th, 2010 7:26 pm

   Love.

4. trena on October 7th, 2010 7:30 pm

   Yes, yes the heels are super-duper. My question is, where is your apron from? I LOVE the colors!!!

5. Lesley on October 7th, 2010 7:32 pm

   If they ever cast a lead for a remake of Bewitched, you have the IT factor.

   I don’t think I could wear that apron without feeling I had to dress up, do my hair, my makeup, etc.

6. Becky on October 7th, 2010 7:37 pm

   Oh please tell me those are the shoes you wore for your wedding. If so I am going to be JEALOUS that you were able to wear them twice!!!!

7. kalisa on October 7th, 2010 7:40 pm

   what, no pearls?

8. Erin on October 7th, 2010 7:43 pm

   Awesome.

   I love the apron!

9. evitafjord on October 7th, 2010 7:44 pm

   Clear. Plastic. AND. Silver.

   When I die and go to heaven, my kitchen will have those cabinets.

10. Kristin on October 7th, 2010 7:47 pm

    Oh, WIN.

11. Rachael on October 7th, 2010 7:52 pm

    Nice stems, Betty Draper.

12. Bex on October 7th, 2010 8:00 pm

    My favorite part is that there is no sign of anything being cooked anywhere in that picture!

13. marta on October 7th, 2010 8:00 pm

    You’re rocking the homeschooling-mom look.
    And I’m still loving the bangs!

14. Angella on October 7th, 2010 8:06 pm

    Have I told you lately that I love you?

15. Erin on October 7th, 2010 8:06 pm

    Love it. I saw this and felt a jolt — made me remember that I had a very vivid dream about meeting you last night. In the dream, I was at the beach and a little boy ran past — when he looked up I recognized that it was Riley, and when I looked to see who was chasing after him, there you were. I was overjoyed to see you. :-)

16. jwoap on October 7th, 2010 8:12 pm

    Oh Linda you just slay me <3

17. yaya on October 7th, 2010 8:18 pm

    Win!
    I also love the apron, like for reals :-) Super cute, I want one even though I don’t cook :-)

18. Ness at Drovers Run on October 7th, 2010 9:05 pm

    I would have exactly the same feelings around wearing such a Martha-esque apron – although – to be honest, it’s totally cute. As for the heels? YES. PLEASE.

19. Ness at Drovers Run on October 7th, 2010 9:06 pm

    Oh – you have a kitchenaid mixer? (jealous)

20. Melanie on October 7th, 2010 9:25 pm

    How. Damn. Cute. Are you?!?

21. heather on October 7th, 2010 9:34 pm

    i know you’re aiming for silly but this is freaking ADORABLE.

22. Victoria on October 7th, 2010 10:20 pm

    Where’s my dinner at woman?

23. sooboo on October 7th, 2010 10:27 pm

    milf-ing it for all it’s worth!

24. Michelle on October 7th, 2010 10:37 pm

    Like I didn’t already have a HUGE girlcrush on you.

    BTW….am loving the polish on your toes. What brand/color is that?

25. kim on October 7th, 2010 11:03 pm

    i don’t see the kids and obviously JB is taking the photo…i feel like i’m slightly intruding…heh

26. Jennifer on October 7th, 2010 11:34 pm

    hey wait I thought you were going to wear the apron without the dress underneath? (Or was that the next – unpublished – photo?)

27. shygirl on October 7th, 2010 11:41 pm

    Oh my god you are both adorable and hilarious.

28. oregoncoastgirl on October 8th, 2010 12:03 am

    Probably the most excellent in like…. DAMN!

29. Donna on October 8th, 2010 3:01 am

    God, I had a 70’s flashback there for a second, damn acid! LOL

30. Sarah on October 8th, 2010 3:34 am

    I love how the kitchen is spotless behind you….

31. warcrygirl on October 8th, 2010 4:37 am

    Bwahahaha! Of course, everyone knows that the real uniform for SAHMs is a stained t-shirt and baggy sweats. Or is that just me?

    WHAT?

    Loving those shoes, never again will you not have a pair of heels to go with your outfit no matter the color or season.

32. Tia on October 8th, 2010 5:28 am

    Love it!!

33. sheilah on October 8th, 2010 5:41 am

    Is that one of Soper’s aprons? Love the pic…very Mad Men (not that I have ever seen that show or anything…).

34. Lisa on October 8th, 2010 6:04 am

    MILF!

35. Michelle on October 8th, 2010 6:16 am

    Are those the shoes from your wedding???

    And if kitchens are what sell houses… Well, I don’t understand the people of Seattle. Gorgeous!

36. Cetta on October 8th, 2010 6:39 am

    Ha! Add some pearls and you could be June effing Cleaver. But we know better… heh.

37. Endo on October 8th, 2010 6:43 am

    Just plain Yummy Mummy! Need some quiet time in the bathroom right now…

38. Anonymous on October 8th, 2010 6:58 am

    You look adorable and although I know what you mean about the overeating making you feel bad; you’ll be happy to know those extra (bag) teddy bear crackers aren’t showing!

39. Stephanie on October 8th, 2010 7:21 am

    So funny, because as I scrolled down the photo giggling at your expression and your apron and your wooden, uh, spatula(?), I kept thinking “what the hell, Linda still looks FAB!”

    Then I saw the clear plastic heels…PRICELESS! Every girl should have clear plastic heels, regardless of whether they wear said plastic heels to strut around the stripper pole…

40. TheRachel on October 8th, 2010 7:27 am

    Are those your wedding shoes? Good thing you got at least one more wear out of them…

41. lisak on October 8th, 2010 8:33 am

    And next you’re going to meet JB at the door with nothing but those shoes and saran wrap on? Isn’t that one of those things that housewives were supposed to do ?

42. Eric's Mommy on October 8th, 2010 8:36 am

    OMFG! You rock that apron!

43. Pinkie Bling on October 8th, 2010 9:01 am

    Love the dress, love the pose, and that darling apron might be able to inspire even ME to cook!

    Also, I’m ashamed to admit that I currently possess three pair of clear plastic heels.

44. Christine on October 8th, 2010 9:11 am

    You’re the cutest thing I’ve ever seen in my life. But why in the world did you ever buy clear shoes? why?

45. Alley on October 8th, 2010 9:18 am

    Oh man, I’ve wanted an apron like that for AGES (my last one purchased was a “Clean All the Things!” one from Hyperbole and a Half, so not girly at all), and now I know exactly what footwear to get with it, too!

    I wanna be you when I grow up.

46. Courtney on October 8th, 2010 9:25 am

    Have I told you that you’re my favorite? No? Well you are…for real.

47. Larissa on October 8th, 2010 10:03 am

    You’re adorable, but the main thing that draws my eye is how is your floor so clean?

48. Shelly on October 8th, 2010 10:25 am

    hahahahahahaha! Love it!

49. lisa on October 8th, 2010 10:46 am

    ha! love it

50. Gretchen on October 8th, 2010 10:57 am

    Where on the mother-planet did you find that apron? I would cook more if I had an apron like that. Either that or have more do-it with the man-friend… I’m not sure how your husband resists, mine wouldn’t.

51. agirlandaboy on October 8th, 2010 11:13 am

    Where’s your lipstick? (Whore.)

52. thejunebug on October 8th, 2010 11:32 am

    You look fabulous, Mrs. Cleaver! Though I must say you are missing the string of pearls. :)

53. simon on October 8th, 2010 11:48 am

    Donna Reed never looked so good.

54. H on October 8th, 2010 11:48 am

    Are you going to cook with that wooden utensil, or are you looking for someone to spank?!

55. Becky Mochaface on October 8th, 2010 2:15 pm

    Love. It.

56. travelmonkey on October 8th, 2010 3:03 pm

    Was it your fantasy for you to wear only the apron with the clear heels, or was it mine?

57. Jen on October 8th, 2010 4:20 pm

    OMG you’re adorable.

    Er, I mean, totally sexy.

    Ok both.

58. Emily on October 8th, 2010 6:42 pm

    Nice. I used to have some like those, and the heels lit up when you walked. Like kids’ shoes, but with more psychology.

59. Laura on October 8th, 2010 10:19 pm

    omg, best. thing. ever.

60. Frannie on October 9th, 2010 5:08 am

    That is exactly what I thought. Clear. Plastic. Heels…. Plays “Highly Suspicious” by My Morning Jacket and announces, “And here we have Brandy Star from Everyone Knows A Slut Named Brandy Fame…” Hey, that’s just MY dream, ok? I have aspirations just like everyone else.

    Actually my mom has a pair of these really skanky ones (Um, I guess she’s a product of the 70’s???) and I think I’m gonna surprise my husband, wearing these and changing a baby bottle..Yes. *That* would be sexy. Ha.

61. Liz on October 9th, 2010 7:09 am

    Ha! If I stop scrolling right at the knee, it looks like a magazine. But then I scroll and see the clear plastic heels. Hilarious!

62. Shawna on October 9th, 2010 7:29 am

    Did a prince come and fit those onto your feet, then whisk you off to have two beautiful sons in the Pacific northwest?

63. Melissa on October 9th, 2010 9:00 am

    Awesome.

64. Pamela Brookins on October 9th, 2010 10:17 am

    Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. You’re rockin’ those shoes!

65. leah on October 9th, 2010 8:38 pm

    luv it!

66. Mommy on the Spot on October 12th, 2010 6:08 pm

    You are awesome!! I love it!

67. adequatemom on October 13th, 2010 11:37 am

    Love it!
