   So I was experimenting with my dryer to find out how hot it gets. We have oven thermometer that I use when baking, I dried it with our sheets a few nights ago, it was reading around 125-135 degrees. I wasn't sure if I broke it in there, but baked cookies tonight and it appears to be just fine. As a side note, the low heat setting was 119 - 125 degrees. We have a pretty cheap dryer.

   Here's what I did to check the dryer...I dried a load of towels the stuck my instant read meat thermoneter into the center of the towels, waited 5 minutes and guess what?? Beef Medium!!! 145 degrees. I figured that was good so I proceeded to wash & dry 17 bags of my daughters clothing..
