Samuel MitchellI always mix up the Marys, so it's good they spelled out it's Mary Magdalene today. Never knew there was a main ban on doing laundry on her day—I'll have to remember that next time I'm sorting the basket on a July 22. Thanks for the reminder.
Sophia CampbellYeah, the Marys do get confusing sometimes, especially with Magdalene, the Mother of God, and the others all mixed in the Gospels. The laundry ban always struck me as one of those old practical rules—my grandma swore by it and just did her washing the day before instead. You planning to give it a try this year?
