Ironing the Italian way

A few weeks ago, we have dinner with Hanh's family. When it come to chatting time, Hanh's husband somehow ended up talking about Italian fashion. To back up his argument on how seriously Italian care about clothes, Giovanni told us a story how his mother, an Italian house wife, do the ironing. First she remove all the buttons from the shirt, then did the ironing on the unbuttoned cloths. After that she manually sew all buttons to the shirt again. That's the proper way ironing in Italy. Normally perfect, rite.

There is no luxury as luxury of time, well, this time my hat is off for the Italian example that show the very meaning of this words.
