Holy crow, Polly, you gave me flashbacks. When I was a kid I'd have
to sprinkle the clothes and handkerchiefs, put them in a bag and let
them marinate in the refrigerator.

Seems ridiculous, thinking back, what is up with adding more
wrinkles? Masochism? Or maybe my mother really is a sadist.
(laugh) Not out of the question.

It wouldn't occur to me to iron baby clothing, and I don't mind
ironing. I have the really nice iron to prove it but now I just
iron my tshirts and pants/whatever.
