MONIALES OP ~ Dominican Nuns : Create a clean heart...

But wash your eyes and spirit out with this. Some Dominican nuns have found a United States company that still manufactures washboards, and they are delighted to have been able to buy a new one to replace the ones they'd worn out keeping their white habits white. (See post here.) The Columbus Washboard Co. has bowed to the times and makes musical washboards and decorative washboards, too, but it still makes working washboards - and has a special program to provide soldiers with washboards and cleaning supplies.

Roundabout hat tip to Open Book, which led me to the nuns' blog.
