In my dream home there will be TWO dishwashers. (I know I am selfish and lazy... but hear me out!)<BR/>Typically we use the same dishes every day. What if we had two dishwashers, one for the newly cleaned dishes that we are going to use next. The other for the dirt ones that we just used... rotate as one is clean and the other one is dirty.<BR/>Think about it... it would save room for storage, and you wouldn't have to unload the dishwasher. <BR/>Have a GREAT day!

We didn't have a dishwasher when we lived in Peru, but it was only me, Rod, and Ben. That was hard enough! I can't imagine with a family of 5!

The fewer people in the house the more I just quickly wash by hand. We are an unusual bunch in our requirements for living. <BR/>I am glad you are counting yourself blessed today even if for a small dishwasher.

Ours broke down and with a new baby we just didn't have the money to get a new one until our tax return. I had to wash bottles by HAND and I HATED it!!! I am glad for you and I know you will figure out a clever way to fit more dishes into it!!!!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09926323450434969253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33542389.post-72691790725394173272007-04-11T15:06:00.000+02:002007-04-11T15:06:00.000+02:00Woohoo!

I had an entire year of handwashing dishes for 8 people using a very small sink with no water pressure AND a problematic water heater. Oh--did I mention that my kids were sick the entire winter that year? It was months and months of HELL! (I meant the place, not the swear word).<BR/><BR/>I am very happy for you even if the American dishware doesn't fit properly. :-D The dog comes in handy too.
