Don't leave me hangin'....

Early on when we moved to China I posted about laundry.  The machines are tiny here, not like the ones in the U.S. that advertise they can wash 50 pairs of jeans at one time.  Well, maybe not 50 but at least 49.  And then the gigantic capacity dryer that can dry them all as well.  Here in China... not so much.  We have teeny tiny washer/dryers, literally a washer and dryer in one.  If you try and dry more than 5 items at once you end up with a wrinkly mess.

Thank God for Xiao Li who does our laundry now and we now dry our clothes the old fashion way....hanging them up to dry, rather than dry them in the dryer.

We have one of these dryer things upstairs and downstairs.  The Chinese locals just hang their stuff outside on trees, rooftops, out windows...wherever.  But it is VERY dusty and dingy here, so we, or shall I say Xiao Li dries our clothes inside.  When it is dry she irons everyone of Michael's t-shirts and boxers as well as the rest of our clothes.  I have already informed him that this will not happen when we return to the U.S.  ☺
