I love it. My husband says that I have an obsession with laundry and I remember my Grandmother doing her laundry with an old washbasin and board. I love bringing back simplicity. I feel it is giving not only our elders respect, but our future generation too.<br />Washing can be therapeutic the old fashioned way, and nothing can be finer that laundry hung on a line.<br />PvEpve designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03527745630303158002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9043721957359281413.post-29509477134666842112010-01-29T21:05:52.150-05:002010-01-29T21:05:52.150-05:00millie

I would never have made a good Pioneer Woman 'cos the wagon didn't have an outlet to plug my hairdrier & straightener into.<br />My sweet old Grannie actually lost the tops from 2 of her fingers when she stuck them in the wringer as a 3 year old.
