What's your favorite?

In college, my roommates would always make fun of me. I loved ironing, it is my favorite chore. And what's more, I loved ironing with starch.

I found it soothing, relaxing and satisfying to see a big pile of messy clothes end up so nice and neat. I liked the starch because it made everything look crisp and fresh and it got all of those pesky wrinkles out! Starch made me look like even more of an old lady, but it made my white blouses look incredible and my pants look nice and smooth. I couldn't say no. I took the joking and whatnot, and knew I was ridiculous, but I always promised I would never iron my husband's dress shirts. They are way too annoying and a girl has got to have some principles!

Then I got married. And I'm not able to do the laundry because it's too heavy for me to carry up and down 5 flights. So I get to put things away and iron. Now I iron his dress shirts... with starch... and it's not so bad, because?

I love ironing : )
