• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Washing Dishes

I used to take mine down to the creek and beat them against the rocks.....then my wife told me that was supposed to be the clothes! Who woulda thunk??

I have discovered this about an automatic dishwasher (and in our married life we've not always had one). No matter which way I load it....it's wrong.
 
I let it pile up. Then I either get a new girlfriend or I sell the house. Works every time. End of story. :icon_lol:

We like to dine with family and friends, at their homes of course, or several of our favourite restaurants, no dish washing required!

I wash everything instantly.

Cooking, done with a pot or pan, stuff poured into serving dish, pot or pan washed now, dumped in drying rack. Finish cooking, kitchen already clean, no evidence left. That said...I never dry dishes. They sit in the drying rack until...well...dry.

Put away next morning.

Meals...dishes straight from the table to the sink, done immediately. Then off to the fireside for brandy and cigars.....umm...no...beer and flightsim.....okay...flightsim with tv going off to one side.

Actually, that's the approved technique. Drying dishes with a handtowel is considered unsanitary. I remember this from being a mess officer at one time and having to inspect the mobile kitchens in the field. It's actually part of a cook's evaluation.

Now, if they only made decent biscuits......
