Spring Cleaning

Here in our little corner of one of the most beautiful and diverse provinces in Canada we have a long tradition of spring cleaning.  This is a thorough cleaning top to bottom going from attic to basement with no nook or cranny left unturned.  Walls, ceilings, cupboards, curtains and closets are all cleaned.  It should take the average homemaker with no help about a week to do a proper spring cleaning.  The practical side to spring cleaning is getting rid of all the clutter and dust build-up from the winter.  In older times the practice was particularly important to rid the house of any soot build-up from heating with wood or coal.  Spring cleaning brings a wonderful sparkle to the windows greeting in the beautiful spring sunshine, something we haven't seen a lot of since the previous October.   This is an excellent time to do a bit of blog cleaning as well, clear out a few cobwebs and do a bit of sprucing up.  I'm sure a little tweaking here and there isn't going to hurt.  It may even speed up loading time while freshening things up.
