We did our little load of laundry Portuguese-style. The washing takes about three hours in the mini-tub, and the drying is ambient air temp. Oops. How to get it to dry overnight? Ah! Plug the portable heater in the bathroom and close the door. Voila!
While you may have been preparing or dining on turkey, we did laundry and left for dinner, where we enjoyed a Thanksgiving meal of a different kind. Grilled octopus, grilled cod, and kale soup.
Quite frankly, though the whole turkey/stuffing/yams/green bean casserole is not my favorite meal, I think I’ll stick with tradition next time and keep laundry out of the plans. Off we go to experience the wine region in this beautiful country.
