I can do better than that. I have a brand spanking new $80 iron, never
used, still in its box. It is about 7 years old.

One of my children was causing some concern at nursery so was sent for
a developmental assessment. In it he was shown picture cards and asked
to name the object or say what they were used for. Afterwards the
ed.psych said to me " he just doesn't recognise or know the names of
some everyday objects, like iron, and ironing board".

Did you send him to a special school?

Have to agree that the ed.psych is an imbecile, nowadays more than
half the households have no iron or ironing board and are rarely seen
on tv, a prechooler would no more know what they are or are used for
then a preschooler would know where babies come from. Today most
clothing and bedding doesn't need ironing. We have a steam iron and
ironing board but they're rarely used, occasionally my wife irons a
blouse that she'll wear for school. I have some linen shirts and tea
towels that I'll iron. I also use mending tape that requires ironing,
I use it to hem slacks that are too long... works great and saves hand
sewing. In warm weather I like to wear a Guayabera in linen, they
require ironing... they are considered formalwear, much more
comfortable than a suit jacket.

Churchill.

I found a canned version we like! I've made it for years but it's a
bit of a pain to do.

Campbells Homestyle Light Baked Potato. 2 servings per can at 100
calories (daughter just hit goal for the Navy BTW but still carefully
sourcing stuff to help her meet her goal).

Ok, home fresh made is still better, but I was suprised that this was
actually good.
