    Do you have one? Mine is ironing. Generally, housework doesn't bother me, but there is something so satifying in watching fabric becoming wrinkle-free.

    And your least favorite? For me it's vaccuuming. I HATE dragging that bulky thing around.

    I definitely don’t have a favorite house chore. Least favorite is maybe cleaning blinds because no matter what I can’t seem to get them clean.

    I don’t mind vacuuming. Best thing I ever got was a battery operated dyson.

    Least favorite: vacuuming since it makes my back hurt. That's why I got an iRobot.

    I don't know that I have a favorite, but I do know that dusting (with my swiffer duster) and vacuuming/sweeping (with our new Dyson stick vacuum) with these items has been lifechanging in terms of ease. I don't mind doing those chores anymore.

    My least favorite will always be bathrooms - particularly tubs/showers.

    Does mowing the lawn count? If not, then washing the dishes.

    Least favorite is cleaning the bathroom ... I HATE cleaning bathrooms, have since my mom assigned me that chore as a teen.

    This!
    If mowing counts, it's definitely my favorite because I actually really enjoy that. I also agree with washing dishes/ cleaning the kitchen. It always makes me feel better.
    And bathrooms are definitely the least favorite!

    I don't really have a fave chore but if I had to pick one I'd say folding towels. I hate washing mirrors and windows. It's too finicky for me, I hate to have to fastidiously wipe over and over to get all the streaks.

    Ha ha, ladies, I completely forgot about the dishwasher because it's not even a chore for me. It is a pleasure - every dish I put in and take out means a dish I didn't have to wash by hand. And loading the dishwasher is the quickest way to clean the kitchen.

    Well, that is #2 least favorite on my list. And, I really don't consider that a chore.

    Laundry is probably my favorite house chore EXCEPT that I hate putting the clean stuff away!

    I'm the opposite. Haha!!!

    I HATE ironing. I actually try to avoid any clothes that require it & I try to get things out of the dryer ASAP so they don't get wrinkly.

    And I love vacuuming because I love the sound of dirt being sucked away & it seems like the most visibly satisfying chore.

    This is this MOST original view on vacuuming I've ever come across.. It seems I need to rethink mine...

    I love my Dyson too! What a difference it makes!

    I pretty much loathe all household chores and only do them when absolutely necessary in between when our house cleaners visit. I guess mopping is my least favorite and vacuuming is my favorite, if I’m forced to choose, lol.

    I hate all of the household chores. It's so annoying that I have to keep doing them. :giggle Why can't things just stay clean? If I had to pick I guess cleaning the kitchen is one that I do without too much prodding, because I really like my kitchen to be clean.

    I really hate cleaning bathrooms.
