Mmmm, the scented dryer sheets smell so good…often we even put a couple in the closet or drawer to take advantage of the nice, clean scented smell. But…you can use too many. Often, we open a dryer and find 6 or more sheets in a load. They have oils in them, just like fabric softener, which is what makes them so effective, but, that residue can also stay with the clothes. Regular use of 1 or 2 sheets in a load is the best way to go. Too much soap, too much softener or too many dryer sheets all can stay with the clothes and actually attract more dirt. Plus, it will help the budget to use less per load.

Here is a question – in the winter, do you feel like you wash more clothes, or less. On the one hand, we are all wearing extra layers of clothing to stay warm. On the other hand, several of those layers get washed several times before being washed, because they are on the outside. So, we can rewear clothes more times than in the summer. In the summer, one wearing and it is ready for the wash pile!! In fact, sometimes you wear more than one outfit in a day depending on your activity. So…winter..more or less?

This year as Super Bowl guests of honor, we have spilled juice – ground in mud – and starring for the first time this year…..guacamole on the cushions!!! These are the guests that stay after your other guests have left. Pillows, shams, rugs and shirts are all on our play list. Bring it all in after the Super Bowl and we will get it all cleaned for you and ready to go back home.
