When I do, my husband asks if I'm in labor.

The special crew of tiny little cleaners came today! Every year, before Pesach, I hire this cleaning service that scrubs down the whole house from top to bottom. A van pulls up to the house and 3 or 4 tiny little women run out armed with vacuums, mops, buckets, cleansers, rags, paper towels, and any other implement of cleaning that they need. They hit the ground running and scatter through the house scrubbing as they go. One will run into the kitchen and attack the stove and oven, another will start bleaching the bathroom, another destroys all furniture dust. They work like tiny little demons for a few hours. Good golly! I just realized that they scrubbed out the crusted on wax from the menorah!


The house is all shiny and new looking. Alas, the house guests will be coming soon. Six guests staying for 2 weeks. My son will be giving up his room and sleeping on an army cot for the duration.

My house doesn't smell like my house (like delicious cooking smells). It smells clean.

Out of curiosity, would visiting be a legitimate way to get out of Pesach Cleaning? Stay with someone else who did clean?

Yup. That's my SIL's preferred method.
