My kitchen has had therapy

 It seems the rule of 3 applies not just only two complementary therapies but also to my kitchen!

When giving massage or other treatments it is usual to do three treatments in fairly short succession. Only after three back massages for example, it  will give up its hidden secrets - all those knots and tight areas. At which point you can proceed to just give a regular maintenance dose treatments.

So on the hiring a cleaning company to come and do my kitchen etc on a regular basis, I was rather embarrassed to hear the lady comment: "this is going to take some time before we get to do this kitchen quickly" . I thought that's all the 3 applying.
