My wife and I agree, there is only ONE WAY to load a dishwasher!.....Alone.
I think that works for us, as well. One of us puts away the food, and the other does the dishes, including loading the dishwasher. We take turns in almost all aspects of the meal prep and cleanup, though I do almost all of the procuring of the foods. It hasn’t always been this way, but that’s because children were part of the equation. Now that it’s just the two of us, we do a lot of this together, and we have fun doing it.
** load a dishwasher**
My wife rarely lets dishes sit long enough to get crusty. We both rinse dishes as soon as we’re done eating off them. She quickly washes them (her brothers call her ‘the White tornado’ after her maiden name). She hates listening to a dishwasher and is certain she uses much less water. One came with this house, has it’s own breaker, which has been off for a long time.
Lol! 34 years and counting and she still can’t load the dishwasher right!
Perhaps the group that lives together is less compatible than those who choose marriage at outset and we are seeing the results related to compatibly and not s causal effect.
