Do you plan on filming it? You could probably air the match as a Pay-per-View, and perhaps raise enough money to purchase a selection of aprons for the whole Homegrown compound.

Mrs. Homegrown here -

I'd actually go the reverse method--I'd start by making the baking soda/water paste and spreading that generously over the bad bits. Let it sit all day or overnight. Then attack with hot water and soap and a scrubbie. And probably more baking soda.

Next, Homegrown Neighbor and I are going to have a smackdown wrestling match in the compost pile to see who gets to wear the apron.

As for oven cleaning- I don't get around to deep cleaning the oven very often but I usually start with some soapy water and let it sit a while. Once the caked on stuff is loosened I use a paste of baking soda and water. Baking soda is a great scouring agent.

hello, seeing as you have your apron on, i have an oven cleaning question for you... How do you deep-clean an oven caked in cooked-on food remnants without using Mr Muscle?

Hell ya! I've got a coupla friends who wear these with aplomb. Gents you can try one on too. You can address your post T-Rex identity while swishing around the garden or house. In fact, extend it higher, make it out of canvas, paint flowers on it and you've got a true cross gender, multi application apparel item. I'm in Germany right now where they make some nifty work clothes. I'll pop in a see what they have to bring back tot he states tomorrow.

Homegrown Neighbor: I liked your post!! :)

Seriously? What the F is wrong with you people? This post is supposed to be about post-feminist female identity. I meant it to be humorous and cute, pointing out that we can embrace some parts of the 1950's housewife and some pre-WWII homestead duties and juxtapose that with being independent, educated modern women. Jeez.
And the only comments I get are about cell phone paranoia!

Ah gee jc, you've convinced me. I'm running right out now and getting the me-phone with the tumor side-pack scheduler and the knee jerk conformist options. I can't wait to stand around thumbing through all my "important" ....things.

Mr. Homegrown here--I have a complex relationship with the cellphone that Mrs. Homegrown and I share and I've been meaning to do a post about it for about three years! I actually have some of the health concerns scodoha has, and I'm interested in people I know who don't own cellphones and the reasons they don't. At the same time I realize that they have become indispensable for others. I propose a joint post between the Homegrown team that I hope will touch off some comments.

No lint?

and scodoha... maybe you should extend the tin foil hat to a full body lead suit.

Sure cell phones are safe... and if not, you may find out in about ten years when the malignancy shows up near the pocket... will it seem indispensable then?
