Some of the best home meals come when the refrigerator gets cleaned out, if we could always remember to write down how much of what we put together.Thank you so much for sharing with us at Full Plate Thursday and hope to see you next week!Miz Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06990448907520193758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-25428181475014457122011-02-17T17:11:14.439-06:002011-02-17T17:11:14.439-06:00I loved, loved, loved this post!

I swear other people live here and we just don't know it. Mondays is my day for laundry, changing sheets, towels and cleaning bathrooms.<br />My closets are overflowing and I have just moved in. I just don't see an end to any of this! Now Spring will be here and we will feel like we have to do spring cleaning! Our job is NEVER done!<br />Blessings My Friend,<br />I hope we don't have to clean house in heaven!!!! lolSweetladyelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876713446754745228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-25842443764062603752011-02-16T19:55:25.272-06:002011-02-16T19:55:25.272-06:00BJ,

I grew up in a small town and I enjoyed hanging clothes on the line to dry. Makes for a wonderful nights sleep. Didn't know that housework caused warts! But I have heard. . .Housework never killed anyone, but why take the chance!<br />Thanks for inspiring all of us to clean out those closets and give to our local thrift shops!<br />Fondly,<br />PatOn Crooked Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04194554531505722292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-71122279379871845342011-02-16T19:51:23.398-06:002011-02-16T19:51:23.398-06:00I iron every darn dress shirt Mr. S owns and I see...I iron every darn dress shirt Mr. S owns and I seem to have so many linen and cotton items that need to be pressed. It's not my favorite household chore, but it's better than paying over $3 a shirt at the cleaners! I organized all my closets in Jan. as part of my PURGE. I'll probably do it again mid year- I don't know how those darn rooms get so filled up so soon!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12843513751203663201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-14841011772622795272011-02-16T15:15:55.215-06:002011-02-16T15:15:55.215-06:00Wow, you've been a busy gal!

Don't know how...that rule "one in, one out" doesn't apply to us, I guess!!<br />Ironing can be calming, if done correctly.<br />Cooking can be relaxing, as well.<br />Cleaning the fridge, never, ever!<br />Hope you have a great day,<br />xo<br />Heidi<br />(sorry about the Wed.

And I'd not wander down there, till it was absolutely necessary. And by then, it would be piled sky high. lol.<br /><br />Now I boot a load, down from upstairs to the main floor, where our still-kinda-new laundry room is, and do it. More on a one a day basis. It makes me feel soooooooooooooooooooooooo virtuous and amazing. -giggles-<br /><br /><i>"Olden Auntie A."</i>Auntie sezzzzzz...https://www.blogger.com/profile/16170232476926222740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-369681864114551968.post-44871703542121574642011-02-16T08:11:24.159-06:002011-02-16T08:11:24.159-06:00Oh yes, we do have to do housework and laundry onc...Oh yes, we do have to do housework and laundry once in a while, don't we?! lol I actually enjoy cleaning (I know, must be a disease I have!! hehe) and yup, I still iron as well. My favourite part of doing laundry is being able to hang the clothes out on the clothesline but can't do that right now, they'd be as stiff as a doorknob with it being so cold! lol <br /><br />My closets get the same way as yours and every few months I have to clean them out...I swear things mate and multiply in there!! The thrift shops around here just love me cuz I'm forever bringing them bags full of stuff. lol<br /><br />Your dinner looked delicious, amazing what one can do with leftovers:-) I bought strawberries the other day and they were the most god awful things I've ever tasted...hard as a rock and no taste!
