I am constantly gifted "joke" aprons because people know I like to cook, so I guess they think I need aprons a lot. Most are terrible in function and fabric and have stupid jokes, but one of them turned out to be pretty useful. It's a Thinkgeek Tactical Apron, camo. It is kind of heavy, but it covers where I get the most splatters. I find I reach for it when pasta making, rolling out pizza dough, juicing prickly pears (bloody messy). It is a ridiculous garment, but I grin when I put it on.
