I like this phrase. I imagine a family sitting around a front-loading washer cheering for dirt and grime to agitated out of their clothes.

Clubs are suckers for moments like these:

There was also lots of good soccer on this past weekend.

Your Oma’s Stollen looks perfect. A sweet lady, who would invite us over during the holidays, would serve it lying flat with a dollop of whipped cream. Anyway, thank you again for this.

Don’t you mean noscitur a sociis? ;)
