I need to wear an adult size bib for meals. I have no idea why but, I always stain my shirts when I am eating. I am not a sloppy eater by any means but, a small piece of oily food always manages to take a dive off my fork and makes a messy landing on my shirts.
Considering either this one in 3XL:

Or, a napkin worn this way, just like the gentleman in the picture:

I do a lot of cooking from scratch and I have three aprons which I almost always forget to wear. Thus, I usually end up with wet clothes or clothes with food splatter. Especially, if tomatoes or red beets are involved, there is no escaping.
I think, I should be in a Victorian Maid garb all day long.

I guess, I should start by sewing adult size bibs and try one of the above after honing my sewing skills.
Maybe you need to designate some eating shirts - put them on only for eating LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh when I have worn out shirts that I wear around my home, this never happens.
DeleteI am laughing because this is me! After baking bread the other day and had flour all over me I looked in the pantry only to literally be smacked in the face by my apron.
ReplyDeleteI knew we were kindred spirits. Lol!
DeleteI am laughing because that is totally me. I try to remove my work clothes as soon as I enter the house but if I eat somewhere else, I almost end up with a stain. Grease stain on a silk shirt is not easy to get rid off.
ReplyDeleteI had a favorite white shirt and that never stayed clean till I got back home from work.
DeleteI've had large boobs since I was 10 yrs.old. Eating has always been a hazard for my shirts. And now that Essential Tremors have kicked(thanks to my genetics)whether I get the food in my mouth or my shirt/lap/table/floor is a crapshoot. ;-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, big boobs here too. Sorry about the tremors.
DeleteI don't do too bad eating (for the most part), but like Sluggy I've got boobs and they have to be accommodated! That being said, I always wear an apron, but in the garden. I guess wearing one in the kitchen wouldn't be a bad idea either though!
ReplyDeleteYou, Sluggy and I can start our big boob club.
DeleteLOL, I used to buy a woman I knew brightly colored flowery scarves from the thrift store. She used them because she was a "messy eater and the mistakes don't show" Something to consider.
ReplyDeleteHaha! That's a good one. May be cheap scarves will save my clothes.
DeleteI’ve been using the thin kitchen towels (tknown as tea towels), as a “bib” tucked into my shirts to protect them when I eat at home.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea.
