We did in about four hours. How long did it take you?

Hmm, yom tov was over at 7 and I think all was done before 10, so less than 3 hours, but it might have been less than that. I wasn't looking at the clock.

The boxes were loaded and out of the kitchen within 1.5 hours. But it'll take a LOT longer than that to put my kitchen back....

It took all day today, from 10am-5pm.

But that was with toddler home & others in & out later in the day, and they keep eating and using utensils even though they are supposed to use disposables.

& working- Thank G-d, some bushiness came in & had calls to make & reports to read.

Now everything is put away from Pesach, but putting everything back... well, that will take longer.

Some years it takes longer than that.

I would say 36 hours, but I still have tablecloths, shmatas, pot holders and towels to put away, so we aren't done yet and chag was over more than two days ago. Plus, as much as "pesach" may be away, chometz isn't out yet... That needs to happen before Shabbos can be made.

I think it took a couple of hours including clearing up from yom tov... it's only DH and I and we keep things very simple. Washed the tea towels the next day, they're always the last to pack away.

Trying to get used to my normal kitchenware again! And I'm not going grocery shopping for chametz until next week, just got a couple of essentials from the local makolet e.g. chummus, pasta, bread...

About 1.5 hours; that's with the help of DH, 3 sons & 1 daughter. Huge kitchen and completely finished in that time.

Ripped the foil off like as soon as yom tov was over! Then washed and cleaned what we had used for eating that day...then put everything in cabinets that were marked Pesach. Brought out chametz dishes and foods so we could eat a little before bed. So that took maybe 1.5 hours but by that time it was about 11pm so the Pesach dishes are still slowly being put back in to Tupperware bins and put into storage...will finish up motzei shabbos most likely, so let's say it's taking us what...3 days?

Myself- shlepping, washing, storing.... Took me 4 1/2 hours to put it all back, wash 4 loads, and put back all stuff in my kitchen cabinets.

It took 4 hours.
The pesach stuff is gone but my house is still topsy turvy. I'm still finding a lot of items that were displaced from my kitchen, dining room, bathrooms and else where.
