Having at least one boy in my household before the arrival of Nathan, prepared me for anything I may find in my washer or dryer. I have found rocks, pens, crayons, seashells, paper, gum, candy, and an assortment of food particles. He taught me early on to check every pocket, button hole, nook and cranny so I wouldn't have an ugly scene awaiting me upon laundry exiting the dryer. It's just regular routine for me now, but I have NEVER found anything like I found Wednesday night. I was removing the clothes from the washer and placing them into the dryer methodically and then
when I reached down to pick-up another clothing item to place in the dryer,
imagine my surprise to find this:
Yes ladies, this is a banana. The actual banana that was in my washer. It went through an entire washing and spinning cycle and did not un-peel, de-peel, ummmm what is the word I'm looking for? Anyway, I have to say this is the first time I have been shocked in quite awhile. I picked it up and immediately placed it on this plate for photo purposes. I only wished I would have thought to take the picture before I took it out, but I was in a state of shock and removed it quickly to make sure I was actually touching what I was seeing.
I couldn't help but think of Shannon at Rocks In My Dryer mother of 3 boys and the cute header she use to display. I feel pretty certain she has found enough rocks in her dryer to landscape a couple of neighborhoods. A very cute inspiration for blog titlement. Hmmmmm......Bananas In My Washer..........
I don't think I'll change my title anytime soon.

lol, that is funny.
I laughed so hard Ken came downstairs to see what I was carrying on about! So was it Nathan that put it in there?
HA!! Too cute!! I love it!
Anita, I am pretty certain Nathan tossed it in while I was in another room collecting the laundry. I know it wasn't in there while the machine was filling. I have noticed him trying to toss stuff into the machine before, but it has usually been clothing items.This means I will now have to monitor him more closely whenever I am doing laundry. *sigh*
Lol! I never had a boy, but I did have three brothers!!! They are totally different. ;-)
Goodness!
I have never found food of that size either...candy sometimes... but not a whole piece of fruit!
Don't change your blog title. I love it.
