Laundry

1. clothes: gather clothes in the black netted laundry bag. this includes dirty clothes around the room and gym clothes, which can be found in the top shelf of the closet

2. towels: gather all towels in santa cruz bag- this includes bath towels, face towels, kitchen towels, and also the bathmat if there’s room. (if the santa cruz bag is full, empty it and then put the stuff back in it once you are done with the laundry)

3. take soap and clothes to laundry room, and start wash, then the dryer

4. once back home, lay out all of the dry clothes flat so they do not wrinkle if you cannot hang and fold clothes right away

5. hang all tops, and fold all of the bottoms. bras in top drawer, undies in second, socks (in pairs) in the third

6. bras, undies, and socks do not have to be folded. just make sure that all of the socks are in pairs

7. all bottoms must be faced with the neat side facing outward. all shorts go in the back right corner. the rest of the piles are for pants

8. the order for hanged tops (going from left to right): tank tops, crop tops, tshirts, long sleeves, jackets, then dresses

9. to fold the towels: fold the green face towel in threes so that now you have a very long rectangle, and then in half. the kitchen towels, fold in squares, and the same with the bath towels. for the bath towels, make sure that they look net in the same way that the pants do

10. to put away the towels, put the green face towel back in the bathroom, fold the bath towels and put them on the top shelf of the closet, and the kitchen towels go in the cabinet next to the kitchen trash can

• always close microwave after using it

• when putting dirty dishes in the sink, throw away all of the food on them first, then put them in the sink. never leave dirty dishes outside of the sink

• all dirty dishes go on the right side of the sink

• always put water on/in dishes when putting them in the sink so that food doesn’t dry and they are easier to wash

• please wash all of your meat dishes stinky >:(

• put leftovers away in the fridge after cooking. if they need to cool, try to put them away before the end of the night so that the food doesn’t go bad

• when putting away left overs, try to put them in tupperware- try not to leave them in the pot that you cooked with

• the sink does not need to be washed every time you wash dishes. use your judgement- when it’s dirty, just scrub it down please

1. gather all dishes from around the kitchen before washing the dishes and put them in the sink

2. gather all dishes from around the bedroom before washing the dishes and put them in the sink

3. wash dishes with hot water

4. stack all dishes in a stable way- ex. big bowls on top of small bowls; cups faced downward so the water can drip

5. wash the sink with the scrubber under the sink, and soap

6. finally, make sure everything is back where it should be. soap on left side of faucet, sponge on right side of faucet, gloves on left hand of sink, and sink cleaner sponge in the under sink cabinet
