Good Monday Morning! The sun is trying to shine through thin clouds. It was 0C when we set out on our walk this morning. Although the nights will be cold we are forecast to have some quite pleasant days this last bit of March. I do hope the rain holds off until after Easter.
It's Monday so I am doing the laundry. I'm sure glad I don't have to use such an old fashioned washing machine but I will say this for those oldies...They did a great job and also used less water since one re-used instead of using fresh water for each load.
Easter flowers for the table.
Thanks for visiting.
Have a wonderful week.
🌷🩷🌸 blessed week to you

ReplyDeleteGood Morning to you. The sun is wining!
Good Morning! We're actually having a warmish day here!
ReplyDeleteThe Easter flowers are gorgeous and I love the quilted table runner underneath the vase.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photo and sweet illustrations! The weather here in Montreal was mostly sunny and reached in the 50's Fahrenheit.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the temperature will drop over tomorrow and Wednesday. I am fine with this, I just take one day at a time. :)
As far as laundry goes, I remember those old wringer washers! You had to be careful not to get your fingers and arm caught in the wringer. Yes, it did have an emergency release, but still. :)
The Easter flowers on your table look lovely.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
I actually have tried to buy one of those old washing machines! lol
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty flowers.
ReplyDeleteMy mom used a washing machine like that for a while.
Washing sheets day for me on Mondays.
I've used those ringer washers and yes they do do a very good job. I remember we'd wash our whites first and then our colors and then are darks in the same water.
ReplyDeleteI'm praying the weather is nice for Easter too, because our church is having an outdoor service in the city park.
Your flowers are so pretty. And I really like the runner inder them. Did you make that?
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with that last picture you posted. Love your Easter flowers too.
ReplyDeleteI remember having a 'discussion' with a friend years ago who was totally sure that the twin tub washing machines were better than new-fangled automatics. 'I can do a whole wash in a morning, and when I mop the floor I've a clean kitchen afterwards ' she said. 'It takes me five minutes', I replied. '2 loads through, one of whites, one of coloureds, just a few minutes of my time for each.' She wasn't happy!
ReplyDeleteMy mother had one of this washing machine it took a long time and was noisy! Glad we have modern ones!
ReplyDeleteI have a great respect for our mothers and grandmothers doing all this work by hands. They could be in a special wise the future for our climate.
ReplyDeleteI had a Burco boiler similar to that, way back in the 1960s! It washed very well.Your flowers look so pretty on the patchwork runner.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers. Have a nice day.
ReplyDeleteI hope the rain holds off, too - I have a ton of pollen pods to rake up in the backyard and the rain turns them into carpet! Have a great rest of your Tuesday, I am a bit late!
ReplyDeleteA very sweet post…beautiful flowers, lovely runner, cute bunnies, fun washing machine, charming words. Happy day, Virginia
ReplyDeleteNice table runner. My one gram had an old Maytag similar to that. She looooooved it.
