I don't think our kids know what an apron is.
The principal use of Grandma's apron was to protect the dress underneath, because she only had a few, it was easier to wash aprons than dresses and they used less material, but along with that it served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the oven.
It was wonderful for drying children's tears, and on occasion was even used for cleaning out dirty ears...
From the chicken coop, the apron was used for carrying eggs, fussy chicks, and sometimes half-hatched eggs to be finished in the warming oven.
When company came, those aprons were ideal hiding places for shy kids.
And when weather was cold grandma wrapped it around her arms. Those big old aprons wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove. Chips and kindling wood were brought into the kitchen in that apron. From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. In fall, the apron was used to bring in apples that had fallen from the trees.
When unexpected company drove up the road, it was surprising how much furniture that old apron could dust in a matter of seconds. When dinner was ready, Grandma walked out onto the porch, waved her apron, and the men-folk knew it was time to come in from the fields to dinner.
It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that "old time apron" that served so many purposes
Turn up the Heat!
There’s nothing hotter than a Sugar Baby Apron to turn up the heat in the kitchen. Okay, maybe the only thing hotter is a Sugar Baby Apron in the bedroom, but that’s a completely different topic. This is a kitchen story.
It was an emergency. The 700 Club was sending a TV crew to our house to record our marriage story, and 8:00 a.m. came way too early. I neglected to wash last night’s cooking pots and bowls full of food, and there’s a certain amount of pressure to present a nice clean kitchen in these national network situations!
I did what I guess any one of us would do – put on a fancy-schmancy apron and hide the mess. I grabbed the dirty pots and did a quick glance to find the best place to stash them. (Taking time to wash and scrub them was definitely out of the question). The oven caught my eye as the best possible scenario and I was pretty proud of myself when they all stacked up perfect and I could still close the oven door. The apron helped my domestic persona and I felt pretty darn perfect when the doorbell rang. My husband Bob and I greeted the 700 Club TV crew with smiles, hugs and great anticipation for our day together.
Fast forward: Eight hours later I plopped my tired self on to the biggest and puffiest chair we own and let out a huge sigh of relief. Bob and I have one of those marriage stories that could be considered scandalous, but because of God’s divine intervention, has a very happy ending. It involves me having an affair, getting pregnant and facing the reality of a baby who will not look like the other three kids all while involved in a very public Christian ministry.
Our first book, “Marriage Under Cover” has helped tons of people to have hope for their marriages. And for seven years we been telling our marriage story in coffee shops, churches, on television and to curious moms at the school bus stop, (when we get the question, “Why is he so dark?”) but an interview setting demands a pretty deep vulnerability and I was asked questions about the darkest time of life…forcing me to visit places in my heart where I don’t care to think about details. Even though Bob forgave me a long time ago, I certainly don’t like him hearing about the affair that took place over eleven years ago. I let a few tears roll down my cheek.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s worth it. On March 21, the story will air throughout the United States and be available online, and I am fully persuaded that God will touch people’s hearts and I will have the honor of planting seeds of hope into lives that may be overwhelmed by despair. And the story is definitely not about my selfish mistake but rather the beautiful, infinite and extravagant love and grace of Jesus. That’s the part I like best! I love that way Bob and I laugh together, dream together and love our life – it’s nothing short of a miracle!
So after sitting and rocking on that big chair for a little while I decided that a full day of emotional intensity deserved some relaxation and maybe even some chocolate chip cookies. I’m fully confessing to caving to comfort food. I like my cookies hot and homemade. What sugar baby aprons girl doesn’t? Then I remembered I already had cookie dough just sitting in a bowl ready to go - prepared in the fridge. DING! That’s when I miraculously had enough motivation to get out of the ridiculously soft chair and get my party started! I convinced myself that I was baking the cookies for Bob and the kids and proceeded to preheat the oven.
I’m guessing my heightened anticipation of pleasure was distracting me from the smell that began to permeate the house. I didn’t even notice the smoke. In fact I was oblivious to any sign of the fire that was going on in my oven. I suppose if you’re going to have a fire in the house the safest place is in the oven!
I actually laughed out loud as I whisked the flaming pots outside. I’m such a nut-cake. The good news is my apron didn’t even get a smidgen of “char” on it and the oven was definitely hot enough now to bake the cookies. No permanent damage done. Whew!
I immediately related the incident to my own life. Sometimes I take shortcuts and stuff things away, hoping they won’t be noticed. I promise myself I’ll deal with wrong thoughts of resentment or compromise later, and then I forget about them. That’s when the heat gets turned up, and I begin to smell something funky and suspicious. That’s when the opportunity arises where I get to whisk the “wrong belief” away and deal with it before it has a chance to destroy my life.
My prayer:
Turn up the heat Jesus! Remind me of anything – absolutely anything – I have stuffed away so that we can get on with the party-adventure of our lives together!
Secondary moral of the story:
Give yourself a break and say “yes” to cookies.
And last but not least:
Always wear your Sugar Baby Apron. It’s domestically impressive and it turns up the heat.

We had some great newcomers on season seven!!
Clay Evans and Quinn James
Clay and Quinn met when she moves to tree hill after she decides to leave her husband David.
Clay resists Quinn at first because he cant let go of Sarah his wife who he talks to for a whole episode before we realize she is dead!
Alex Dupre
She appears to be the most confident actress.
She causes Brooke and Julian a lot of heartache when they start working together on her script,
but when he tells her he does not love her and never will she does not take it very well.
I find myself wondering this season will Haley and Nathan ever get a break?
First a horrible woman named Renee tries to get money from them claiming Nathan fathered her child.
Later in the season her mom returns to tell her girls she is sick, and she dies in Tree hill
Brooke and Julian have lots of ups and downs this season.
Brooke thinks she is pregnant, but when she goes to find out she hears the news that she will not be able to ever be pregnant.
Alex tries to get with Julian this whole season.
But at the end Julian proposes to Brooke YAY!!!
Dan returns with a show "Scott free redemtion" ........oh and a new wife Rachel!
Crazy Sarah look alike Katie shoots Clay and Quinn
On a happier note Haley and Nathan find out they are having another baby
Season four is a great season.
However I dont like to watch it most of it unless I have the lights on and the doors locked!
Matt Barr does such a great job being the discusting creeper that is Psycho Derek.
We Also find out that Haley is pregnant not Brooke!
Karen and Dan rekindle their romance until Lucas stops it!
Which angers me to no end! I really wanted them to get together again just for a while.

I love Naley soo much through this season!

I find Haley very amusing while she is pregant, especially when she finds out that he had slept with Brooke a long time ago.
Haley: How am I supposed to compete with all the girls that you've been with?
Nathan: You don't have to compete with all the girls.
Haley: All the girls?! How many girls have you slept with? Fabio!
Haley: I'm pregnant, you idiot!
Chris: Oh. Dude! Totally not mine!
Lucas and Peyton together at last!

Peyton: What?
Lucas: When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me. It's you. It's you Peyton.
Peyton and Brooke fight through the whole season until Psycho Derek brings them together

Why do you even care anymore?
You made fun of my mom's death, Brooke.



Nathan: I know I did a horrible thing, okay. But I deserve to e punished for that, not Haley! She's a good person and she'd be a great mother if... Look I know it must suck how people are always asking for things and never giving anything back and I know that Keith saved me at that bridge, but Haley saved me long before the accident. There has to be a miracle left for her, please, please, don't take her from me, don't take our child from her.

Rachel and Brooke move into together and becomes best friends!

Brooke: Check me out! I'm a smart virgin!
Rachel: Great! You're the new Mouth!


Season three is by far my favorite season of one tree hill.
This season is filled with drama
With all the love triangles, cheating, weddings, drugs, and a pregnancy at the end, or is it two pregnancies........?

"At this moment, there are six billion, five hundred two million, eight hundred sixty seven thousand, one hundred and twenty people in the world. Give. And sometimes all you need is one."
We get to see lots of Brooke and Lucas together who I adore as a couple

The rain episode is my fav from this season!
Lucas:”The truth is I care about Peyton”
Brooke:”Then what is the difference?”
Lucas:”The difference? The difference is that I love you Brooke, I wanna be with you, not Peyton.”
Brooke:”But why? I need to know why?”
Lucas:”Because you kink your eyebrows when you’re trying to be cute. Because you quote Kmo even though I’ve actually never seen you read. Because you miss your parents, but you never admit that! And because I’ve given exactly two of these embarrassing speeches, and they’ve both been with you. And because we’re both gonna get pneumonia, but if you, need to hear why I love you, I can go on all night.”
Brooke:”What I wanted? I wanted you to fight for me! I wanted you to say that there was no-one else you could ever be with and that you'd rather be alone then without me. I wanted the Lucas Scott from the beach telling the world that he's the one for me!”
Lucas:”How was I supposed to know that?”
Brooke:”You just are.”
Brooke:”I was afraid of getting my heart broken again, like before.. You hurt me so bad, I was afraid to be vulnerable. And I was afraid of you and the way that you make me feel. I know it doesn’t matter now after what I did, but I thought you should know. This is how I spent my summer Luke, wanting you. I was just too scared to admit it.”
Lucas: Brooke, I am sorry. What you did with Chris... it's okay.”
Brooke:”It's not, it can’t be, it’s too much to forgive.
Lucas:”Well… Too bad, because I forgive you.”
Brooke:”You can’t”
Lucas:”I just did, so you’re gonna just have to deal with it. I am the guy for you Brooke Davis, and I know I hurt you last time we were together but ...”
Brooke:”I love you”
Lucas:”I love you too ... ... ... pretty girl.”
Haley and Nathan fix their marriage
However the beginning of the season the are on the rocks.
Always and Forever ~ Naley

The scene when she goes into his bedroom and gets in his bed, and he lets her kiss him but stops her.
Haley "I understand if you dont love me anymore"
Nathan "Always and forever."
"See thats what sucks Haley, I still do love you, I just cant trust you"
Nathan: You know for most of my life I would have gone through this alone, but then I met you. And I finally found someone I could depend on like I've got this.
So I guess I called you 'cause I wanted to know if that was still there.
Haley James: Nathan, you can always call me. Always and forever. I want to ask you something, umm, the night of the masquerade party, did we... did you kiss me?
Nathan: Of course I did. (they kiss)
Haley James: Oh, no you didn't. That kiss wasn't half as good as this one. I love you for lying to me.
Nathan: Haley... stay with me tonight.
Haley James: Oh, I was hoping you would say that.
Peyton gets to know her birth mom
Im not even going to talk about Jake because it was too short lived!!!

Ellie: Every song has a CODA, a final movement, wheter it fades out or crashes away.
Every song ends, is that any reason not to enjoy the music?
My Beloved Rachel comes into the mix!
Rachel is probably my favorite character to ever come on this show
I mean is there anyone else who can be that rude and still so funny and likeable?

Rachel: You dont scare me Brooke, I mean it's not like I'm a cookie or a donut
Rachel: Hey you look almost as hot as me
Karen and Keith finally get together, until Dan's jealousy and hatred gets the best of him

KAREN (to Dan): You killed him. You may not have pulled the trigger, but you let him go into that school.
I wish it had been you who died in that school.
DAN: I never apologized for the way I treated you and Lucas or for the way I treated Keith. I suppose it's too late.
KAREN: I'm pregnant.
DAN: I'm gonna be there for you this time, Karen. It's gonna be okay.
SAD MOMENT
Karen smelling Keiths clothes and falling to the floor in tears.
The school shooting was the most intense episode on this season
I think everyone of the actors did an amazing job in this episode
Who didnt get goosebumps or cry when God bless the child comes on? (the only song played on this episode)
I can still see Lucas carrying Peyton out of the school and Keith telling him he loves him one last time.


The love triangle between Lucas, Brooke, and Peyton pretty much is a main theme for this season
