who knows what darkness lurks in the heart of washers and dryers? The momma knows!
/this is the post in which I remind or tell those who have children, or maybe drunken roommates, that one should always check the bottom of the washer before putting any laundry in, that if you think there is potato flakes in the laundry, use cold water, and that putting things through for a second wash is generally a smart idea, as wet cereal dries to the consistancy of cement, and potato flakes will rehydrate, then dry to the consistancy of little potato clay pigions.
