Ironing!


Today among other things I ironed.Ironing is good.It gets the wrinkles out and makes some otherwise unusable napkins usable. However, I discovered that I had forgotten how to iron! With cotton items it is important to sprinkle them down and then when they are damp, not dry, iron them. So to compensate for not sprinkling I put damp wash cloths between the napkins, that helped somewhat, but as a note to myself I need to remember to by a sprinkling can or a sprayer. I can see my moms can even now as I write about this. How did the pioneer ladies do it? Irons weren't plugged in and they weren't stainless and lots of the clothes were white! Ah the questions of time.....
