Meet Mel- our lady of the house, the heart and soul of Laundry Box. If youâve had a chance to meet her in store you would agree sheâs talented, friendliest, hardworking, and most approachable. We are lucky to have her leading the way đЎ
Here are a few fun facts about Mel.
If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
Time manipulation - so many things I think if I could I would like to go back and re live. I loved the time I had when my kids were little and would like to do it all over again. Thereâs definitely some things I would do differently.
Whatâs your favourite hobby?
Definitely working on my reef tank. I find it so relaxing just sitting and watching my fish and corals. It amazes me, in particular all the colors and different types of corals and how they all behave in the ecosystem Iâve created-how theyâre affected by lighting and water chemistry. When you actually really get into it, itâs so amazing!!
Whatâs your favorite way to spend a weekend?
Cleaning and feeding my tank on one day, and spending the day cooking (especially when itâs cold and miserable outside) for my family on the other.
Whatâs one thing youâve been meaning to try but havenât yet?
Keeping beesâŚ. During covid I bought a bee hive kit, but havenât had the time to set it up and get some bees in to make my own honey. I want to have it in an area with a veggie patch, but that will be a while away before weâre ready to do thatâŚ.one day thoughâŚ
Whatâs the most embarrassing song you secretly love to sing along to?
I will unashamedly sing along to any song, whether I know the words or not đ¤Ł. And, unfortunately for the team (and my kids) I donât necessarily care whoâs around. The only embarrassing thing is that Iâm not a good singer đ¤Ł
