Zero Calorie Hostess Cupcakes {Aprons}

Growing up, my mother was obsessed with healthy eating.  Lots of fresh veggies and fruit, and pretty much our only "junk food" was peanut butter.  All of our sandwiches were made with 100% whole wheat bread, and I only had Wonder white bread when visiting my friends' homes (something about how it stuck to the roof of my mouth seemed so decadent).

In order to indulge in other junk food goodness, I remember jumping on my banana seat bike (super cool, BTW), and pedaling up to the local gas station to spend a bit of my babysitting money on Hostess cupcakes or chocolate pudding pies.

These memories came back to me when hearing all the hubub over Hostess filing for bankruptcy back in January.  I imagine that plenty of kids back in the 1970's buried Hostess Twinkies and other treats in time capsules, and the plastic-like goodness will surely still be edible when they're dug up 100 years from now!  Until then, and to help satisfy your Hostess yen, I've been stitching up Retro Revival Hostess-inspired cupcake aprons:



I have so much fun sewing these aprons.  They're almost as yummy as the real thing.



They elicit lots of smiles, and occassionally I'll receive photos from happy customers.  Here's Michelle:
