When I was a bride of about3 weeks I mistakenly washed my favourite red blouse with underwear - my husbands included. Everything came out a lovely shade and hue of pink. He said, "Creative laundering by B. Maurene White Elliott (my newly married name, I kept my maiden name and added his family name). He bravely wore his pink underwear, maybe imagining other husbands had creative laundresses too!
