Okay....confession time
I used to have a drawer in my kitchen where I kept all my herbs and spices (they keep longer out of direct sunlight) and....

I had them in alphabetical order.



I also used to iron duvet covers, pillowcases, gussets of knickers (kills any potential germs!), kids' vests, tea towels, napkins (yes, I even had napkins).

I baked muffins, made jam, baked cakes, pies, cooked pretty much everything from scratch, milked goats by hand, collected eggs from my chickens and was an all-round perfect farmer's wife. I was even rosy-cheeked and slightly lumpy.



But now all that's behind me. I don't iron, cook much, I'm still rosy-cheeked (face like a well smacked arse as my dear dad puts it) but no longer lumpy - climbing instead of milking!
