Today we made a little foray into the MIL’s basement.  I wanted to measure the new stainless kitchen sink we found in a box down there and G remembered seeing two wood picture frames that she wanted for her counted cross-stitch.  We really must remember not to open anything unless we’re prepared for a fright.

     G decided to open a box and found tons of plastic containers from every food known to man.  We know we’ll be setting out two recycling bins a week of plastic again once we begin to clear out down there in earnest.  I happened to look in a paper bag and found a large pile of gorgeous antique linens of every sort.  We will have to wash and iron all of them now.  You might know we already got rid of the ironing board along with the iron.  At least the MIL’s washer works. And that’s more than I can say for mine.
