I have started a list of sayings I intend to match up with images. These come from my "cooking" category and would work great on aprons! Please add yours to the list and hopefully we'll inspire some fun and clever works of art!
Runs with spatula.
Professional dinner maker.
Because I'm the Mom, that's why!
Five second rule in force here.
Panhandler.
Got EVOO?
Give pizza a chance.
You want fries with that?
I only have pies for you!
Chaos, panic, disorder. My work here is done.
Cork the whine!
Martha doesn't live here.

Any others?
Filets well with others
Everything else that comes to mind is some sort of Silence of the Lambs/fava bean reference.

Here are a few:
Dinner is ready when the smoke alarm goes off
Help keep the kitchen clean....eat out
You have 2 choices for dinner 1. Eat in 2. Go out
Sometimes I cook with wine and sometimes I add it to the food
Be thankful.....that I cooked
My kitchen, My rules.

I used to tell my girls, "Tonight we are having fish for dinner...........fish in the refrigerator and see what you can find." Many years later and lots of grandkids..........now they all fish in my refrigerator. :) Terry
Oh, these are so funny. I've been told -- Two Choices for Dinner; Take it or Leave it. My mom was a terrible cook and sometimes the option was number 2.

These are great. I really needed a good laugh this morning. (cold front came thru and I am NOT into the cold weather.) a cold front here is 54 degrees. please don't shoot me for the weather. I LOVE IT when it's in the 80's. Any way, I think I'll run over to the craft store on my lunch hour and pick up some aprons.

When my children would ask what's for dinner I would tell them "Air Pie and Windy Pudding" they would just turn around and walk off. The other one was "It's Mammas kitchen...don't ask.

When my friend Pam's five kids started clambering for supper, after and especially bad day, she'd tell them, "IT'S YOYO NIGHT!"...You're On Your Own!!

I saw this at a local store--Mom and daughter matching aprons. These were
b &W houndstooth with pink trim. The mom's said "Domestic Diva. The little one said "Diva in training" We are going to make them with zebra print and me and the two girls will each have a different contrasting color.

It is a little long, but my mother-in-law says this all the time: "I don't eat anything organic, at my age I need all the preservatives I can get!" She doesn't know it, but it's on an apron she will get for Mother's Day.
