Last Minute Washes

 
You probably realize that you shouldn't run the washing machine unless you have a pretty full load. Putting one or two items of clothing in the washing machine by themselves sounds pretty ridiculous, right? But what if there is that one shirt or one pair of pants that you really need for tomorrow? What if you get a stain on something and need to wash it right away, but don't have other things to wash it with? Use the sink! Don't forget about hand-washing! Right now I am playing a sport, and sometimes need my jersey multiple days in a row. I simply fill up the sink part way with hot water, use an infinitesimal amount of Tide (the trace amounts that dried on the inside of the cap), swish it around, and rinse! The whole process probably takes about 5 minutes, and works just as well as if it were washed in the machine. Save some time, some soap and water, and some sensitive noses!
