I thought that was just my motto - I too "blue the loo" and "pink the sink". I wonder where it originated from?

The first time I heard this quote it was said by Anthea Turner in the Domestic Goddess programme she did many years back. Don't know if it was her "invention" or she picked it up from someone else! Nonetheless, I have stuck by this rule ever since. In my case it's pink and blue J Cloths in the bathroom."If you dream alone it will remain just a dream. But if we all dream together it will become reality"0 -

That's where I first heard it - and it's stuck. Whilst I will confess to owning the DVD's I still am NOT a domestic goddess....:jFlylady and proud of it:j0 -
thank you all.
Sponges will be demoted to the toilet after kitchen use and in the meantime, blue cloth for the loo and pink for the sink

I only ever use the disposable wipes for the toilet. Everything else I use clothes and sponges that go in washer or get binned depending on how tatty they are.Have a Bsc Hons open degree from the Open University 2015 :j:D:eek::T0

There are no colour codes in my house. I make my cloths from old towels, teatowels, bed sheets, tablecloths, and pillow cases, so mine are all the same colour. Simple really, the cloth for the kitchen stays in the kitchen, when it is manky it gets relegated to cleaning the floor and other dirty jobs. The cloth in the bathroom stays in the bathroom. A weak solution of diluted wash up liquid and bleach is used for cleaning everything. When used they are rinsed and hung to dry. As the cloths cost me virtually nothing they get binned when no longer fit for purpose.
IlonaI love skip diving.
