“Mom, what’s that funny
looking thing propped behind
the door to the stairs? ”
“What funny-looking
thing’”
“You know, that folding
metal thing with blue legs
and flowered pink material
on it?”
Oh, that thing. That, my
dear, is an ironing board.
Yes, it is something left over
from the “olden days,” when
I was younger.
You see, once upon a time
we used that contraption
every week for a job called
“ironing.” There was this
electrical appliance, kind of
triangle-shaped with a

hot when you plugged it in.
When it go too hot to touch,
then it was ready to use.

wrinkles?”
Well, back m those ancient
times, there were no such
things as polyester double
knits or electric clothes
dryers or fabric softeners.
When clothes were washed,
the fabric dried looking like
something that had been lost
under the bed for a week or
two. Then we had to stand
for hours holding that hot
iron and pressing those
creases out. As 1 remember,
there was also a thick, gooey
liquid called “starch” that

“Why?”
You know, I used to

We little kids used to leam
how to iron on simple, flat
things like hankies and
cotton dish towels, before

even heard of people that
