I spent a good part of yesterday scrubbing the muck off of my blue dishes. They used to reside on a shelf above a ventless stove. So all that grease collected on their exteriors. I used 3.5 Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, turning them black in the process. But, look! Lovely!
I also got to give Buddha a bath and then have this conversation:
Hartwell: Mom, who's that guy?
Me: What guy?
Hartwell: THAT guy!
Me: Buddha.
Hartwell: Where did you get him?
Me: Gramma Janice got him for me in Thailand
Hartwell: PIE-land??!!
Me (laughing): What's Pieland?
Hartwell: It's a place with pies and NO restaurants.
