Friday Question of the Day – What do you/did you Collect?


courtesy Hello Kitty Cafe Truck

This week’s question is inspired by the press release below. Hello Kitty super fans take note!! So I always love learning what some folks collect. Like you go into their kitchen and you see a thousand cow magnets or something like that. How in the hell did you get started collecting cow magnets?!? When I was a kid growing up, I used to collect baseball cards and autographs. I was fanatical and spent every penny on them. Besides some of the autographs they’re pretty much worthless today hahaha but it was fun at the time! So what things did you/do you collect? What got you interested in collecting them?

And regarding that press release – THE HELLO KITTY CAFE TRUCK – NEXT STOP: BETHESDA, MARYLAND!

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!

Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.

Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
