I am sure we have so many of those wonderful, everyday cleaning jobs we love to do.
I will announce a winner next Saturday AEST. Don't forget to leave me a way to contact you. Good Luck!
Washing dishes by hand! (I really hate drying, though, so I use my dishwasher.)
ReplyDeleteUh, okay, okay! I LOVE to clean the toilet! NOT! I don't have a favorite chore!
ReplyDeleteFavorite household chore?! You're so silly :-) Actually, folding laundry is soothing to me -- must be the stroking fabrics thing!!! Very nice giveaway :-D
ReplyDeleteI dont really have a favourite house chore ,lol,but the one i enjoy the most would be vacuming as it is quick and the carpet always looks great when you have finished,lol.
ReplyDeleteI actually enjoy housework, now that I am home and have time to do it ;-), but my fave has to be ironing and putting the clothes away - seeing the empty clothes basket is such a good feeling ;-)
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm....favorite chore.....that is a hard one. Does washing and ironing fabric count?? I guess laundry is probably my next favorite but I don't iron clothes! :)
ReplyDeleteDelegating!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSorry, that's all I could think of lol, I really hate housework ;o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)
Favorite! Not laundry! I like to organize and throw things away.
ReplyDeleteA favorite chore? Are you kidding me? I love all those completed by my husband while I'm out ;-) haha. Walking the dog, if that counts, i like that one! :-D
ReplyDeleteMaking the bed. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is pushing the button on the dishwasher! Works well for me!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite household chore? I don't have one. In fact, my favorite saying is, "Why do housework? Six months later you have to do it again!"
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay, if I have to pick one it would be dusting. It cleans my furniture off like a chalkboard eraser so I have a nice clean surface to draw on when it gets dusty again.
I don't have any favorite household chores, but the one I mind the least is emptying the dishwasher.
ReplyDeleteFavourite chore? Does encouraging my teenager to do his chores count? Washing up .. would be my choice
ReplyDeletePutting things away after the weekend. Things get a bit higgeldy piggeldy over the weekend and I like the feeling of 'getting the house back' on Monday. I love the lived in look...until I can't see the kitchen table any more lol. VermontPines@aol.com
ReplyDeleteMy favorite chore is making the bed in the morning. Thanks for the lovely giveaway. Hope June has turned out to be a wonderful month for you!
ReplyDeleteThat is a tricky question!! Maybe folding clothes...
ReplyDeleteI have two favourites 1st is ironing as i watch MY DVDs while doing it. 2nd moping the floor and seeing it all shining and clean until someone walks in out of the cattle yards with there boots on grrrrrrr. I am new to your blog and have enjoyed reading some of it and thank you for the great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteHugs

Hands down it is laundry. Especially when I can hang it outside. But inside is good too & even coming from the dryer I just love to do laundry & fold all those nice clean, good smelling things! Nice giveaway. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to pick one, it would be turning on the dishwasher (ha)! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWell, laundry is good because you can sew while you wait. And cooking is good because it's nice to have something to eat. But really, a favorite? They're called CHORES for a reason.
ReplyDeleteHmmmm.....favorite household chore. I guess washing dishes would be the lesser of all evils. I get instant gratification!
ReplyDeleteI love ironing sheets - the smell is what does it mainly. I just love the smell of ironed sheets :)
ReplyDeletevacuuming - instant results look great !
ReplyDeletebeautiful fabrics !
not many people have favourite chores and I agree. Housework.. dirty word. I like it when I have done the ironing!
ReplyDeleteIroning. I love the smell!
ReplyDeletehmmmm . . . laundry? but not the folding part :p
ReplyDeleteourbusylittlebunch(at)hotmail(dot)com
I love to iron. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI love vacuuming. And I love what the floor looks like when you are done :) All those lines in the carpet! So clean!
ReplyDeleteMaking cookies, of course. Someone has to do it!
ReplyDeletePlease don't tell my husband this, but I think my favorite chore is making the bed. I never used to make it when I was a kid, but when I got married, it was the one thing that my hubby really insisted get done every day - he couldn't sleep in an unmade bed! Well, over the years, I've really learned to enjoy the thrill of a freshly made bed! Oh, and I really love vacuuming since I got my Dyson......
ReplyDeleteI love to iron! Vacuuming would be a close second.
ReplyDeleteFavourite chore?! Hoovering I guess ...
ReplyDeleteDessert quality control coordinator. Gotta make sure it is okay for the family... LOL. Oh a real chore.. hmm Vacuuming. I like making the patterns in the carpet.. weird I know.
ReplyDeleteI would say washing the dishes. Super fun and I like the sound of the water flowing.
ReplyDeleteI would have to say that vacuming is my 1st pick as I find the sound rather soothing. Thank you..lindacrosby(at)hotmail(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI'm a duster, it gives me a chance to touch my things and reorganize.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite household chore is cleaning the kitchen... I feel like having a clean kitchen makes or breaks your home! I find it theraputic!

Emptying a clean dishwasher. Not so much on reloading, though. Eww gunky food. :)
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm not alone when I say.... not one is my favorite. I don't mind the laundry. Guess it is one I could list. Though I hate actually putting it all up. Weird huh!! LOL Thanks for the cool fabric giveaway. Glad I found your site!
ReplyDeleteI like folding laundry and washing dishes by hand... but I hate putting away laundry and putting away dry dishes! What is that all about? Maybe because my cupboards and drawers are usually unorganized :(
ReplyDeleteAnyways, that fabric is making me swoon and I would love to win it!
My fave chore is laundry. Especially if the house is a mess, it makes me feel like I've accomplished something.
ReplyDeleteI love washing the inside windows overlooking the lake. Lots of break time seeing who is water skiing or boating!

ReplyDeleteI really don't like cleaning at all. I have a wonderful family that splits up the responsibilities. I occasionally hand wash the dishes even though we have a dishwasher and ironing is my responsibility

ReplyDeleteI really like cleaning my bathrooms. I can do it pretty fast with my system, and it soooo rewarding when I am done.
ReplyDeleteOK I'll admit it I really enjoy laundry especially the folding part!
ReplyDeleteI like doing laundry. It is a critical task with tangible results and includes lots of break tim
ReplyDeleteIf you count cooking as a household chore I'd have to say cooking. If not I'd have to say grocery shopping although I don't like putting away the groceries. I always get more than the pantry will hold.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite chore is making the bed.
ReplyDeleteMost household chores are, in their own way, soothing and produce immediate results. But, favorite would probably be vacuuming. It is the one chore I nearly never assign the children.
ReplyDeleteI love hand washing dishes! I work through a lot of problem solving while washing them. Alas, now that we have a dishwasher I find myself only washing pans and knives so most of my problem solving as of late has been trying not to drop them on my feet!
ReplyDeleteI don't like any household chores! The closest thing to a household chore I like is watering the garden.
ReplyDeleteWell, I do love cooking. Does that count?
ReplyDeleteI love this fabric, it is in my etsy favourites!
ReplyDeleteI actually love hanging out the washing! I have a system!
Favourite chore?? Did you say favourite??? does anyone really like cleaning??? I hate it, and I have holiday accommodation and I have to clean that too and that's worse cleaning after other people, now look, you have made me rant...LOL. Okay if I must pick something, I would say hanging the washing out because it always smells so nice straight out of the machine. Linda
ReplyDeleteMaking the bed! Because when it is done I can spread a nice warm homemade quilt over the top..... Yep that would have to be my favourite.....
ReplyDeleteI like ironing, especially menshirts!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the give away and greetings from Belgium
I've always had a thing for ironing... I guess because I can pretend that I'm doing sewing related ironing ;)
ReplyDeleteOh and now that we have a Roomba the vacuuming is fun too!
Love ironing as I can do this in front of the TV:)
ReplyDeleteFavourite household chore would have to be pushing the start button on my dishwasher...lol

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness.... is there such a thing??? I don't mind cooking... but only because I like food and eating!!
ReplyDeleteHugz
I would have to say its making the beds. Making the sheets nice and straight and wrine free, knowing how nice it will feel to get into that bed later that night.
ReplyDeleteI love to steam my carpets and scrub the floors. When I've finished those steps, it means that I'm done with the major chores!!
ReplyDeleteChores are so boring compared to quilting but if I have to pick one it would be putting out the garbage....quick and easy.
ReplyDeletehanging out the laundry- its pretty relaxing, and nice to be outside.

I don't think I have a favourite, but if you mean the one chore I dislike the least, it'd be vacuuming. I got a new Dyson recently and it's my toy :-)
ReplyDeleteSanitizing the kitchen counter. I like the feeling of bacteria going bye bye. lol
ReplyDeleteI like to organize stuff. Cleaning my kids rooms (they are very little) is fun because I have things so organized and everything has somewhere to go.
ReplyDeleteI think I like them all only if I can get into the mood of doing ;D
ReplyDeleteDefinitely anything to do wish my sewing machine - mending, sewing, fixing up hems, etc. Even turning sheets! I must be mad, but it is so satisfying. (Kathy Trevelion)
ReplyDeleteIroning! It relaxes me and it is by far my favorite chore.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!

My favorite household chore is doing the laundry. I like the process off folding the clothes and making them neat and tidy. Sick, huh? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI typically despise housework but I sometimes thoroughly enjoy emptying cupboards and drawers, cleaning them and then reorganizing them. It's the librarian in me.
ReplyDeleteI would have to say, my top 3, in no particular order:
ReplyDeleteVacuuming
Cleaning the Bathrooms
Cleaning the Kitchen
Dread them all until I've started, then I find them quite enjoyable, and the results are always the best!
Who can enjoy their day with dishes in the sink and crumbs on the counter?
Ironing is my favourite. Very nice giveaway! Thanks :))
ReplyDeleteI really don't like the "H" word. It gets in the way of my craft time. But if I had to pick something, I would say grocery shopping.
ReplyDeleteI like washing dishes, but my new favorite chore is mowing the lawn.
ReplyDeleteP. S. I love Anthology Fabrics!
Is it weird that I like folding laundry?
ReplyDeleteI like washing dishes. I find it relaxing. Good thing too because I don't have a dishwasher - except for DH :)
ReplyDeleteNew follower here!!
ReplyDeleteMine is vacuuming right now :)

I like to iron my clothes, though it's a rather hot task to do in the Summer.
ReplyDeleteI really like cleaning the bathrooms....small space....quick job. I am an instant gratification kinda girl. Don't mind loading the dishwashereither but HATE unloading!
ReplyDeleteFavorite chore? Does cooking count? Otherwise...none.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite household chore is laundry. I do a lot of it, as I am a massage therapist, but whether it's for work or home, I like the ritual: wash, into dryer, fold while warm. Pile sheets & towels into functional & pretty stacks or hang shirts & pants while warm, & hang towels back in the bathroom. Sweet!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway opportunity! :-)
I love to Iron, Yep there aren't many of us left in the world...
ReplyDeleteI would have to say vacuuming. It changes the cleanliness of a room very fast.
ReplyDeleteVacuuming is my favorite chore.I love how quick it makes a room seem cleaner.
ReplyDeleteNot sure I would actually call it my favourite chore, but I do enjoy doing the washing! Great fabric. Hugs Naomi
ReplyDeleteI actually enjoy weeding the garden. It's my quiet time and I get to reap the benefits all spring and summer.
ReplyDeleteThis confuses most people, but washing the diapers. It's the best kind of laundry: already sorted and doesn't need folding and you know it reallllly needs to be washed! OK maybe I don't want to win cuz you'll just post this comment and people will see that I'm insane.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite chore is laundry. I have always loved the smell of freshly laundered clothes. :-) I have been bugging DH to make me a clothes line outside. That would make them just about pefect.
ReplyDeletePlease enter me in your drawing! Thank you!

Laundry. Weird I know...but the smell is great when they are all done. :)
ReplyDeleteI love hanging laundry on the line. Next I like taking them down...sniiiiifffff....mmmmm...
ReplyDeletelol, my fav chore is thinking about a list of things I can tell my husband I did during the day so he thinks I was busy.
ReplyDeleteIn wintertime, it's polishing furniture. In summertime, hanging laundry on the line.

Favourite chore is cooking included, love cooking particularly desserts, or cake or pavlova
ReplyDeleteI know I am weird but I actually enjoy ironing, but I wouldn't like to do it for too long and I have to watch TV while doing it.

My favorite household chore is folding clothes. LOVE it...just hate having to put the clothes away once I'm done :)
ReplyDeleteI like watering my garden. : )
ReplyDeleteMy all time favorite chore is hanging the clothes on the line !
ReplyDeleteOddly enough, I love cleaning the bathroom! I enjoy seeing the shine that is created! I also love the smell of Ajax!
ReplyDeleteThose fabrics are lovely!
Mine would have to washing clothes - it gives me a sense of satisfaction that I'm achieving something however it is actually cleaning itself and all I have to do is put it in the washing machine, add some soap and hang it on the line (and I get to go outside in the fresh air!) Thanks
ReplyDeleteSusie
I quite enjoy hanging out the laundry, it has to be done a certain way. Don;t love ironing though.
ReplyDeleteHappy days.

When I didn't work outside of the home I didn't mind doing housework since I was a stay-at-home mom and that was my job! However, since I don't have time doing chores, I am going to cheat and say cooking is my favorite chore - I guess it would be considred a chore since it has to be done, right? I just wish I had a maid to wash the dishes or at last clean up the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher!LOL
ReplyDeleteI am one of those vanishing people who loves to hang clothes out of doors. Whenever we have moved to a new house, the first thing I've had my husband do is put up clotheslines. In one case where this wasn't allowed, I used to tie up a line on wash day in our walled-in backyard where (hopefully) nobody could see it!
ReplyDeleteI really like ironing! I usually only iron things like tablecloths, napkins and new fabric so I'm always ironing things I like! If I had to iron shirts and sheets, I'm sure I'd hate it!
ReplyDeleteWhen I wrote the question I thought, a favorite household chore!! Who want to have this! I do not. I do not like anything with housekeeping. I just want to sew, quilt, stitching. That is why a have a dishwasher, washingmachine. Hope to hear from you and thanks for this give-away.
ReplyDeleteSweeping! I sweep the kitchen floor several times and the rest of the houseat least once. If the floor is clean I fool myself into believeing the rest of the house is clean too :) and I get a little exercise while doing it.
ReplyDeleteI would rather cook (or sewing hahaha) than do anything else! Pick me pick me!
ReplyDeleteThat's hard, because I really don't know. But I guess it's washing the bed sheets because it's so nice to sleep on fresh smelling sheets.
