Download or read book How to Wash the Dishes written by Peter Miller and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Find order and beauty in the kitchen with this delightfully elegant primer on washing the dishes that elevates and illuminates a seemingly routine chore. Washing the dishes is an ordinary, everyday task--but with examination and care, it can become much more. In this reverent guide to the household chore, Peter Miller shows us how washing dishes can become a joy, a delight, a meditative exercise, and an act of grace and rhythm. We pay so much attention to recipes but little attention to maintenance and cleanup. Washing the dishes is as much a part of making a meal as prepping the vegetables, making the sauces, or seasoning the meats. At times it is quite routine, sometimes raucous, other times complex. It is never convenient. Despite its din and clatter, and despite its reputation, washing the dishes is the coda to the meal. It is a bustling musical of water and soap, of flow and surface, and done well, the fragile shall sit as proudly as the cast-iron. There are some who do the dishes for the clarity and privacy of it, and there are some who relish the quiet isolation of putting things in order where they belong. There are some who feel the time and movement is a kind of digestive. In the evening in particular, there is a silence when it is all done. How to Wash the Dishes brings elegance, art, and a bit of mindfulness to the sink. It is the perfect gift for those who love to clean and equally as apt for those we wish would clean a bit more.

Book excerpt: For Cheryl Mendelson, laundering is the best part of housekeeping. It’s full of physical pleasures—the look of favorite clothes restored to freshness and beauty, the tactile satisfaction of crisp linens in beautifully folded stacks. Good laundering preserves things you love and protects your pocketbook. It doesn’t take much time or effort. What it takes is knowledge, and Laundry is the comprehensive, entertaining, and inspiring book on the art of laundering. Culled from the bestselling Home Comforts, with revised and updated information and a new introduction, Laundry is an indispensable guide to caring for all the cloth in one’s home: from kitchen rags to bedding, hand-washables, and baby clothes to vintage linens. Mendelson offers detailed guidance on when to disregard labels, removing stains, making environmentally informed choices, sewing, and storing clothing and fabrics. A much-needed antidote to the standard-issue how-to manual, Laundry celebrates the satisfactions of ironing, folding, and caring for clothes and linens. Both pragmatic and eloquent, Mendelson provides beginning and veteran homemakers with a seamless combination of reliable instruction, time-tested advice, and fascinating personal narrative. As a farm girl in Pennsylvania, Mendelson—who is a philosopher, lawyer, and professor, as well as a homemaker, wife, and mother—received a classic domestic education from her grandmothers, aunts, and mother. Laundry combines the best of the traditional lore they taught her with the latest in technical and scientific information. Writing with infectious love and respect for her subject, Mendelson is sure to instill in readers a newfound affection and appreciation for the art of laundering.

Download or read book W A S H written by Maisha Howze and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us go through life suppressing our past and present issues. Often, we do not think we have the ability, or support to address situations that may have caused internal damage to who we are. W.A.S.H. is a self-help book that utilizes reflection questions in a workbook format to give you a deliberate opportunity to reflect on each chapter and think about your individual needs. W.A.S.H.: Time to Do YOUR Laundry was written with the hope that you as a reader will examine your dirty laundry and move from withstanding the strife to the process of healing. ADVANCED PRAISE for W.A.S.H. Time to do YOUR Laundry" You said . . . you hoped your story was 'relatable'. It was not only relatable; it is my story too! It is amazing how a little white girl from 'the burbs' was having almost the same struggles at the same time as a little black girl from 'the Hill'! ~Amy Wienand, LCSW"Maisha's book is so timely for the culture. It is my belief that her story will help all women, but specifically Black women move away from the cultural belief that only weak women have mental health challenges. Through her vulnerability, Maisha powerfully depicts how someone like herself, perceived as strong and accomplished, privately battled for her life to ultimately reclaim it. W.A.S.H. will shift the narrative about what it means to be strong in the presence of life's challenges and provide a pathway for other women to share their struggles and receive healing through the process of self-reflection and doing their dirty laundry..~Latika Davis-Jones, PhD.
