  • Unload the Dishwasher Faster

    Here's a simple tip that left me saying, "Doh! Why didn't I think of that!"

    Instead of spending time sorting my silverware when unloading, I should separate it when loading the dishwasher. All the spoons in one, all the forks in another.  When it's time to unload the dishes, all I have to do is grab each section at a time. No more sorting!

    Thanks, Hope Lester Ruggieri for posting this on your facebook status.  That tip was TOO-OOO good! 

    This post is linked to Works For Me Wednesday at We Are THAT Family.

    Edit:  Somebody commented that the spoons tend to nest together.  So be cautious that they are getting clean.  Not been an issue with my dishwasher.  Someone else commented that this does not work for them because they prefer "child labor".  Haha.  Something is up with the comments.  Not sure where they are going. Sorry guys.

  • One of my daughters taught me that trick. It just never occurred to me. I also put my plates in big to little so they are easy to grab all at once.

  • Well, that's rediculously brilliant! I love this idea!

  • Just passing it on from a friend...  Got a dishwasher for Christmas and have been thankful to finally try it out.  My dishwasher utensil area has seperators, so no problems with the spoons nesting! 

  • @Hope - I'm with you, Hope.  No problems for me either.  Loved the tip!  Thank you!
