Ode to Laundry and How We Love Thee



Ode to Laundry,

and how we love thee.
The smells, the tastes
and even the tasty stains!



Skirts and shorts,
shirts and jeans,
it doesn't matter what's in the laundry,
For we'll chew on anything.



Whether we crawl or prance,
dig or burrow,
there's nothing better on a Friday night
then sniffing some dirty underwear.



We used to piddle on the laundry,
it was so soft and fluffy.
But now we know better,
it's not for peeing--it's for munching.



Oh laundry, how we love thee,
the dirt, the sweat, and leftover cookies.
Oh tasty tasty laundry,
It's our favorite part of cleaning.



Wait--wait, hold on.
What do we have here?
Why, it's the Blond Duck's underwear!
Oh, glorious day,
when we can chew on a pair of panties!



Panties and boxers,
tank tops and shorts,
We Babies of the Pond,
love dirty clothes.

Ode to laundry,
and how we love thee.
For without these messy clothes,
we would have never discovered panties were so tasty.

It doesn't take much to make the babies happy does it!

Those two little mischief makers can even make laundry looting look cute.

hahaha I remember an old dog of ours that had a penchant for the delicious taste of my undies. It used to make me really angry. Thankfully Jess can't get up our circular stairs! I admire that you can even make doing laundry sound cute and fun! Loving the babies as always! PS-am working hard on the sketches! :-)Not as much time to devote as I had on holidays but should have more to show you real soon! Yayy!

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your darker dog looks just like my chihuahua.

Thank God my English Mastiff doesn't eat the laundry! We'd all have to skip and go naked!
