It's summer.
The hot dog consumption in my house is high.
I think this tip has changed my laundry life. It's certainly reduced my stain-induced stress.
When serving your child their favorite meal (a.k.a hotdogs and ketchup), put the ketchup UNDER the hotdog.
So, to clarify:
- Step one: Apply ketchup to bun.
- Step two: Place hotdog ON TOP OF ketchup.
- Step three: When child drops their entire plate on the ground, their white shirt will stay clean.
- Step four: If this is your third child, blow dirt off said hotdog and enjoy.
Note to self: Why is my child wearing white?
