How do you shave minutes off your daily routine?

The best thing I ever did was substitute a duvet and a duvet cover for sheets, blankets, and a bedspread. I have a lightweight duvet for the milder months and a heavier one for the winter months, with three duvet covers I can rotate. Simply shake out the duvet and fluff the pillows and your bed is made.
