Did you know that when you move from a OCONUS location to a CONUS location, you have to pass EPA and customs regulations? Tis true. We have a custom’s inspector at our house Friday morning, BRIGHT AND EARLY. He looked at all of our outdoor type equipment, grill, lawn chairs, pots for plants, golf clubs, etc….and told us what to clean, BUT was mostly surprised that it was already clean…except the POTS.
Saturday is “Saturday Morning Clean-Up” in our house. This Saturday, we included cleaning things for our move. Things like the pots (and the attic and the storage sheds…and…and…)
We don’t want to bring soil, bugs (dead or living), mold, mildew, etc….home with us to the United States. If any of those things had disease, we could potentially infect our food supply with a devastating disease. UHHHH, yeah, I’d like to avoid that. While I’d like a smaller rear end….starving to death isn’t on my list of ways to get one.
Just a thought.
So after scrubbing my pots, ( a few more than I photographed)…..they looked like this:
And now that my teens have discovered yet another reason “why my mom is weird” (because I took pic of my dirty and then clean pots)…I’ll let ya go….ROTF
