Robinson invites readers behind the scenes of more than a decade in domestic cleaning. From bizarre accusations and difficult clients to unreliable staff, awkward encounters and unexpected acts of kindness, no two days are ever the same. She shares the pressures of running a small business, the chaos of the pandemic, and the resilience, humour and survival that kept her going. Observational, honest and laugh-out-loud funny, <em>Tales from Under the Kitchen Sink</em> is a celebration of the stories we all carry &mdash; and the surprising humanity found in the places we least expect.</p></div></div><div class="sm:flex sm:justify-center lg:justify-start"><a href="/tales-from-under-the-kitchen-sink" class="w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0 sm:mr-2" aria-label="About the Book"><!--[--><button link="false" class="w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0 sm:mr-2 transition-all cursor-pointer hover:brightness-90 font-body font-semibold disabled:hover:cursor-not-allowed inline-flex items-center justify-center rounded-full border whitespace-nowrap text-sm tracking-wide bg-accent border-accent text-black px-4 sm:px-6 py-2 min-w-45 text-base w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0 sm:mr-2"><!--[-->About the Book<!--]--></button><!--]--></a><div role="button" tabindex="0" class="w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0"><!--[--><button link="false" class="w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0 transition-all cursor-pointer hover:brightness-90 font-body font-semibold disabled:hover:cursor-not-allowed inline-flex items-center justify-center rounded-full border whitespace-nowrap text-sm tracking-wide bg-transparent border-black px-4 sm:px-6 py-2 min-w-45 text-base w-full sm:w-auto mb-2 sm:mb-0"><!--[-->Get in Touch<!--]--></button><!--]--></div></div></div></div><!--]--></div></div><div class="relative size-full z-container bg-light"><div class="pb-[min(5vh,5em)] pl-[clamp(1em,4vw,2.5em)] sm:pl-[7.5vw] lg:pl-[min(10vw,10rem)] pr-[clamp(1em,4vw,2.5em)] sm:pr-[7.5vw] lg:pr-[min(10vw,10rem)] size-full mx-auto max-w-9xl"><!--[--><div class="w-full mx-auto bg-[#EEF9FB] p-4 lg:p-6 rounded-2xl mb-4"><!--[-->
