[quote=Anonymous]I used to but having small children has made me so tired that sometimes I just can't. But I loathe waking up to a dirty kitchen, especially if dishes didn't even get rinsed off so that it still just smells like stale food. Now I often split the difference. I load the dishwasher and set it to run overnight, rinse off anything that needs to be hand washed quickly, set anything that needs to soak in the sink with soap and water, and then wipe down counters. I can usually get all this done in 15-20 minutes, less if it was an easy dinner or if we cleaned as we cooked. And I love leftover night! I still don't like waking up to dishes, but I find it more manageable if it's just a few pots and pans and they've been pre-rinsed or soaked. Plus as long as I run the dishwasher, that means we're starting the day with mostly clean dishes.[/quote]
