Our dishwasher broke last fall. I showed my 28 year-old son how to wash the dishes by hand.
After he finished washing them, he asked, “Is this how they did it in the Olden Days?”
LOL. Now that’s funny, and a little bit sad, too.
We didn’t have a dishwasher till I was in my mid teens, and then it was one that you wheeled over to the sink and attached it to the faucet. Another hose drained from it into the sink. It was years before mom and dad were able to remodel the kitchen, and put a dishwasher alongside the cupboards. That house was built by my Grandpa and uncles in the 1930’s.
I’ve told my brother if he ever wants to remodel again, I want that old porcelain kitchen sink. It’s a beauty! Stains and all!
I have a brand new dishwasher have NEVER used I ALWAYS wash dishes the old fashion way!! Dishwashers are great for families but for one or two people it is easy to just do them by hand!!
