Elena tagged me with a meme, so here goes:

Aprons – Y/N?

Don't own one.

Baking – Favorite thing to bake:

Cookies

Clothesline – Y/N?

Not now, the tree it was tied to blew down in the hurricane and I haven't had time to use it anyway. I do like the way sheets feel and smell when they are hung outside to dry, but otherwise I pretty much have used the dryer.

Donuts – Have you ever made them?
Only beignets.

Every day – One homemaking thing you do every day:

Can't think of anything, we pretty much share housework around here

Yep.

Yes but my dh says when it breaks it isn't going to be replaced. He has hated it since I got the first one.

The internet

Neither, but I don't do it often.
