I'm dying to make shortbread today, but think I'll hold off until tomorrow. <br /><br />Y'all, when I was young Crazy Gramma (that's honestly how she spells 'grandma') would invite brother and I for sleepovers and go "My hands are hurting me so I'll LET you vacuum for me today."..."My allergies are acting up so I'll LET you make dinner tonight."..."I just don't feel like going out so I'll LET you go to the store for me." All while brother sat playing video games with Grandpa. We're not so much guests as free labour.Katienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944124509506124771.post-23294729952188134062009-09-22T07:50:48.301-06:002009-09-22T07:50:48.301-06:00* Partners in Grime*

'Cause I would never have enough balls to ask a "guest" to clean the tops of my cupboards!<br />(And I have cleaned the tops of my MIL's cupboards, but only because I had to paint up there.... did you ever see the video on my blog of painting mother's house?)the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17434610508260994331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944124509506124771.post-13378355488052626982009-09-21T21:43:41.045-06:002009-09-21T21:43:41.045-06:00Hi BagLady, I must have written that wrong.

She "lets" us do things as in, `Honey, I`ll let you take down all the stuff and wash the tops of my cupboards today`.<br /><br />When I first got married, she used to call me every day to offer advice on how to fold her darling boy`s underwear among other tidbits of lore. Stop laughing. It`s true.<br />I am sooooo thankful for call display.The Fifth Sparrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01773655079860251054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944124509506124771.post-88487439835963070512009-09-21T20:30:35.647-06:002009-09-21T20:30:35.647-06:00Well of course you deserve the better part of the ...Well of course you deserve the better part of the deal! <br />Your MIL sounds very smart indeed! My MIL invites us over for supper occasionally, too, and I usually do at least part of the cleaning up, but she doesn't expect me to do her stove and fridge, too! (Sure hope she doesn't read your blog - don't want her getting any ideas! :))the Bag Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17434610508260994331noreply@blogger.com
