Camp Sweatshop: Finally, these children are starting to benefit ME edition
We had a ton of laundry to do, so first I sent them down into the dungeon to sort the clothing. It's not like they didn't have help; there's a cat down there.
Next, you have to place the laundry in the washing machine. It works best if you do it bucket brigade style and add them piece by piece by piece. (Don't forget your purse.)
Now, add detergent. Be sure and sprinkle it in grain by grain.
I'm not sure she could find a way to make adding the softener ball last longer than it should. She'll have to work on that.
Then take the dry clothes out of the dryer and bring them upstairs.
By this time, you will be ready for lunch. We call this Egg in a Hole from our friend Ree (who has a much better tutorial here), but it's also in this kids' cookbook, which we are slowly making our way through. There are a ton of other names for it:
Make me a sammich, beoytch!

I remember making the egg in toast when I was a kid. It was one of my favorite things to eat! I'd forgotten all about it. I'm going to have to try that tomorrow.

We've always called them Cookie Eggs and I never questioned that name until a few years ago when I found out we called them that because my aunt's housekeeper/nanny used to make them for her kids and the woman's name was Cookie.

Gee I remember the kids wanting to help with chores....Now they are never home and just leave the mess behind. The egg and toast thing looks pretty good.
