She told me her secret of using liquid detergent for all her bright color, cold water washes. She explained why she hung dry most of the clothes and went on to tell me if you get your clothes out of the dryer as soon as they were done, you never have to iron them.

The thing is, my roommate is also a hang-dry kinda gal, so we always end up fighting for free hanging space (the shower rod is a particular favourite - one time we loaded it up so much it actually fell. That was not fun, let me tell you).

I just can't think of it right now. My fam was poor, too. Single mother with four jobs.... that whole story. And my dad had seven kids in the house, and he was dirt poor, too. But I learned a lot growing up that way, and I appreciate everything I have now because I'm much better off than my parents ever have been, but I wouldn't be if they hadn't taught me to save my money and go without a lot of useless things (I'm still pretty weak though).

That's all we had. It had better be cotton soft to go on my bottom these days. Well, I refuse to use Scott toliet paper tissue or Scott facial tissues. That’s all we had.

I do remember a lot of pasta in my youth, but I always thought it was because I was a picky eater. Took the leftovers for my lunch, too. And Scott TP because the other stuff, erm, irritated us. Come to think of it, I don't know how true that even is! Hold on, I have a call to make...! My mom must have been really good at hiding the fact that we were poor.
