BABY & THE BATH WATER ($83,000 – $95,000)

Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Ever wondered how this saying came to be?

Well, 500 years ago, daily life was far different than what we’ve grown accustomed to, today.

For example, in the 1500’s, when it came to personal hygiene, many people bathed only once or twice per year!

To make matters worse, an entire family would bathe in the very same water!

The ‘Order of Operations’ generally involved the adult male bathing first, followed by the adult female.

Any children would then get their ‘turn in the tub’ – from oldest to youngest.

By the time the babies found their place in the queue, the bath water was beyond filthy. So much so, mothers had to be careful not to throw their baby out with the bathwater! What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?

Not much, really.
