Bought some new undies, some are part cotton. I learned my lesson with the Old Navy 'go dry' activewear capris I bought last year that hot water and a regular cycle (not delicate) is what it takes to get them clean, especially when I used them to exercise/bicycle outdoors in hot sweaty Texas.

But the active wear is sturdy, bras and other undies tend to be more delicate. But they can get just as sweaty at times. Just a few hours at the park this summer, for instance, with my active toddler grand baby will be exercise.

Not to mention my soon-to-be-here swimsuit, probably the first one I've bought in a decade, my son is going to get swim lessons for the g'baby because she loves my apartment pool.

So how to get these delicates clean?
