WHY I HAVE HOUSE STAFF

Well, this should certainly clear up why I have houseboys for the house chores around here. And why I had my iron taken from me.

  6. My Gawd, I haven't seen a steam iron since Donna Reed was filming "From Here to Eternity".
    I've heard if you put Vicks in one, it will clear your sinuses....

    1. Dear, years? Are you implying I'm old fashioned? Well, you may have a point. On a good day my hair does resemble that of Donna Reed, only with tons more Aqua Net.

  9. We were just talking about having staff over coffee this morning after learning that an ironing board is just a surf board that realized it was time to get a job. We've got a really upscale, expensive ironing board. We've never used it. Gin would help.

    1. Same here Mitchell. I have used it twice in the 15 years I've had it. Gin definitely helps.

  10. Wait. Gin in the iron is good; the clothes get pressed, you get high, and you get a gin facial to boot.

    I may have to start ironing more!
