Hot and Wet is the Way to Go!

I figured it out!!! OM biggest secret ever!! I can't believe this!

I have been learning by trial and error how to dry my clothes on the line. For the past two months I gave up putting underwear, socks and towels out in the sun because the effect was CRISPY. I don't much care for hard, scratchy towels. So, I would put them in the dryer on 20 minutes, 15 of which is air-dry. I would do that twice and the result was fluffy, soft. BUTTTTs! Yesterday I uncovered a SECRET. I just happened to wash a sheet and instead of hanging in on just one of the many clothes lines I draped it over the entire Umbrella Clothesline Contraption. Then I hung two loads worth of clothes under it. It took a good long time to dry(a few hours) while I did other, non-laundry related, things. The result was OH MY BUDDHA soft and OH MY ALLAH fresh!!!

As I spread the sheets out onto my daughters bed I was overcome with jealousy about how they smelled and felt. I couldn't believe it!! The shirts and towels under the sheet were soft and the sheet that was sacrificed to the Sun God of HotandDry smelled fantastic and wasn't crispy either. The humidity that is produced under the sheet must keep it moist enough to stay soft... I guess. (Hot and Wet = Moist and Soft)

I wonder what chemical they must put in fabric softener that makes our clothes dry slower and

remain softer. Now that I know this softness(and fantastic scent) can be attained with fresh air and natural resources, look out! It seems utterly ridiculous to pay money for chemicals that hurt the planet in order to achieve the same result that nature gives us for free... and better! It's like faking an orgasm. It's a waste of time. Why not work at having better sex? Fake orgasms don't improve your complexion or feed the amount of endorphins to your brain that real ones do. Right? Just, whatever you do, don't take medication for it. Chemical orgasms would be the antithesis to my point, here.

I now have a spare sheet that is designated to the drying of clothes, just in case I don't have a dirty sheet in the house that could use a major freshening up! Yum!! From here on out, I will dry clothes under a sheet. Wet is preferable but dry will do.

Happy Laundering!
