I've been washing and drying all day. When I was raising my children I washed things in the bath tub and then used a wooden clothes rack to hang them on in the Winter. I also cooked with wood and heated with a wood stove. My pies, bread and applesauce just don't taste the same now.

I've thanked my niece and told her my quilting friends think she is pretty special, which she is. Just took towels out of the dryer................so much softer than when dryed on a rack.

I'm so happy for you. Bless your niece's heart. We don't realize how good it is to have something that works good. Good for you.

Yes, thanks for reminding me. At first I wasn't doing that now the vent has been full of fluff from the towels especially.
