I love that you find solace in hanging laundry outside–AND manage to tackle a few garden tasks while you’re out there, too!!! Don’t worry so much about not growing food from your heirloom plan, you are still learning and I think anything you plant is great!!
We do not hang out our laundry outside–we have far too many issues with seasonal allergies and pollen getting on our freshly cleaned clothes would defeat the purpose of laundering them. However, I do hang quite a bit in the basement =)
What a great idea to hang them in the basement! I have been trying to figure out how to hang our clothes out of the way when they’re in the house. I see a new project in my near future.
For the allergen issue, have you tried throwing each load in the dryer for 15-20 minutes when you bring them in? I use it to soften them and knock off any nasties. It uses energy, but a lot less than running a full load. Our airborne allergies are almost non-existent now, so I’m not sure how well it will work with full-blown ones. What a great time to start on my Baby Steps to Better Health [shameless plug]. 😉
Oh man, this post makes me want my own backyard so badly. The layout of our condo just wouldn’t allow for this, but someday. Someday…. (sigh)
Start small! Ikea has indoor clothes drying racks, and you can group your plants around it. They’ll love the humidity and you can pretend you’re outside. 😉 On a more serious note, I wish you much luck finding even a small patch of land to scratch in the dirt and revel in your domesticity!
I was just reading on another post and all the comments about how they hate line drying bc of allergies but I guess they don’t understand your immune system has to be around stuff to build and learn to fight things off! I actually have lined-dried before but this makes me want to ha! 🙂
Would love for you to link up to Healthy 2day Wednesdasy with all you healthy posts every week from Tues 11pm EST to Saturday Evening!
