Dry on a Dime

Spring has finally sprung!

Why not celebrate the return of warm weather in true frugal fashion—by line-drying a load or two of laundry? You'll save on energy costs, plus your clothes will smell delightfully clean and fresh after a morning drying in the sun.

(If line-dried clothes occasionally feel stiff to you, a five-minute spin in the dryer will soften them right up.)

I WISH it were spring here! There are baby butterflies outside of my window and teeny leaves on the trees, but that's about it here in Seattle. I hear it's supposed to be sunny on Saturday. Whoopee! And maybe up to 60 degrees ;)

It's an idea, but not for here - yet.

What a great idea - I must just buy a new washing line and then I can do it!

Yep, I'm line drying my clothes. Can't beat free energy from the sun. Thanks for the reminder.
