I second 1001petals' concern; even though I realize it's not like I'm scrubbing out my laundry basket every week I can at least see the dirt (if it collects) so I know when to clean it. I wouldn't be able to tell with a laundry chute, especially one that's been there for decades. And depending on the size of the chute, wouldn't it be a hazard if a kid climbed in?

I currently use a top sheet in addition to my duvet cover because my sheets are a higher thread count (and softer) than my duvet cover. Ultimately if I get a better duvet cover then I'll stop using the top sheet as that's how I was raised by my Swedish mother.

I prefer liquid soaps to bar soap as I find it's less drying and better for my sensitive skin. I do miss the variety and fragrances of bar soap though. If I did use bar soap then I think storing new soap in drawers is a clever idea.

I never answer someone's cell unless they've given me explicit instructions to do so because they're expecting a call. Even if I notice it's a mutual friend; I'll just text/call that friend on my phone to see what's going on.
