Washing Day...

Day to do the bedding. There was an item on a website I go on which was about How often do you wash your bedding?
It varied quite a bit,with a lot washing once a fortnight, and a lot once a week. Some wash twice a week, but maybe they live in hot areas..this was an American website. Someone washes her pillowcases every day..personally I think that is a bit much, and every fortnight seems to suit us ok. The new bedding I bought a bit ago from QVC which is 350thread count cotton, needs ironing, and that would be a pain more that every fortnight. Can't remember how often my Mum used to do the bedding, but it was sheets and blankets then, and the laundry was a lot more of a faff to do. No washing machine, or tumble dryer and there was a spit iron on the hob too. The Good Old Days..I don't think so!
I don't think it will be long before the quilt goes back on the bed, it is definitely getting cooler at night, and the nights are drawing in too. Going dark at about 8.30is to a quarter to nine now.
VT went to Maghull and Ormskirk this morning. He had to get some more pills for little Rusty, this time he came back with 100 which cost £27.Nearly as expensive as human medicine. But she is worth it.
Tonight we are having:
Quorn satay sticks,
Stir fry vegetables,
Egg fried rice 4oz.
Satay sauce
