2.5 hours

The title of this blog is the amount of time it takes my brand new teensie weensie washing machine to finish a laundry load. Not to mention that it is the size of my teensie weensie dog as seen here:

The Italians don't typically have laundry rooms; so my washer only fits in one of our bathrooms.  The dryer (which is the same size) only fits in my closet. The dryer takes 2 hours to dry clothes. So if you want clean pants you need to commit at least 4 hours to laundering them. No wonder it was so hard to find an apartment with a big closet here....
