The thing around the house that I hate to do the most is fold a fitted sheet. I was doing it today and no matter how hard I try, or have tried over the years, I have no talent and no patience. I think folding a fitted sheet well must take patience.
A few years back, when Martha Stewart was the rage, I saw one of her shows where she demonstrated the way to fold a fitted sheet. I was all ears and eyes. Basically she was saying that you find a point in each fitted corner... You sort of pull at it, and when Martha did it, each side effortlessly folded in on itself. I still try that system, but it doesn't really work. Of course, Martha's sheet was perfect.
In college, my friend Andrea first tucked the corners into each other, and it all worked beautifully for her. Mine are still lumpy. I just heard she's getting a divorce, so knowing how to fold sheets isn't enough to hold a marriage together.
