Skimmed & decided to get rid of. Boring, obvious, weird mixture of “humor” and advice. But: “If you have a spin dryer, remember to put a bowl under the waste pipe or you’ll have a kitchen awash every time.” There used to be a spin dryer in the basement of our apartment building, which people still used for sheets and towels even though electric dryers had come in. It was scary—vibrating as though it would pull its bolts right out of the floor—but fascinating.
