I don’t think I’ve seen many clothes on hangers here to dry. For one things, the space to hang clothes in the closets are rather small and hangers more pricey than they are in the States! We have eight though; thanks for the great idea as I do occasionally run out of space. Best wishes with your coming move!

Hi Rachel! I was obsessive and particular about my clothes pins too! It had to be the right pins with the right clothes and the clothes had to be in just the same order every time. Do people in India hang their clothes on hangers to dry? I didn’t think it would work as well but succumed to the practice as the size of our wardrobe out grew the clothes line!

I’m so glad you love Beatrix Potter too! What a gift she gave to us through her paintings and stories. How sweet that your son has picked up some of the charming words she uses–I love it when children have interesting vocabulary and go beyond the basics!:-)

Thanks for that glimpse! Isn’t it amazing there how just living takes up all your time? And something as seemingly simple as going to the post office could possibly take up an entire day!
We love Beatrix Potter too. My son actually calls handkerchiefs “pocket handkins” much to my delight!
I’m glad your trip went well.
Blessings,
