First Laundry Mishap

We've all heard tales of the disastrous consequences that come from mixing clothes in the wash, right?

Before Riley and I got married when I did the wash, I separated my clothes into like seven different groups. Whites, reds, blues & blacks, browns & tans, etc etc. But Riley had his own system. And since he does most of our wash, this is what has been happening.
Dark colors. Light colors. And whites.

Maybe that's how most of the world does laundry and I was the crazy one who did unecessary separation? Well anyways, the other night Riley was "forwarding" the laundry. (That's what he calls it when you move a batch of clothes from the washer to the dryer)
I'm in the other room, yet I clearly hear his audible gasp.
+ (PLUS)
= (EQUALS)
This might give you a little more of an idea of the original color vs. the "new" color.
The exciting new pink color is residing in between the two normal colored ones. It started out beige, but now it's this interesting new shade of pinky brown. GAG. Riley insists on keeping it and not throwing out. Not just keeping it, but displaying it along the other towels on the rack.
So there it is, folks. Our latest science experiment gone wrong. Let this be a lesson...

  1. How long have you guys been married?? I think the first time dustin had a laundry mishap, we were dogsitting my parents dog(my family dog). She had a nervous stomach and ended up going to the restroom with an upset stomach in the living room. Dustin used bleach cleaner on the carpet(which is fine) with a BLACK kitchen towel! (we had not yet had any regular towels to clean with.) He then proceded to clean the dogs potty with a White kitchen hand towel. So we now have two rag towels a black one with ugly yellow-white bleach staines. and a white one with gross puppy p stains slowly able to bleach it out each wash. This was about a month after moving into the house. Boys... At Least they are cleaning.
