Why would you waste time washing by hand? Why would you use the extra water to wash by hand when dishwashers use so little?

We're also a family of 4 and use dishwasher 2x week. Pots and pans are washed by hand as are mixing bowls and knives. Sometimes I end up washing other small items by hand too. And agree with PP sometimes I hate putting a Pyrex dish or Tupperware and take up all the space so I end up washing more than I should to make other plates fit.

Oooo, yes! Bathroom habits — sign me up for that convo. I’ve been dying to know if DH is alone in peeing just 3x a day. Are any of you part-camel? Please discuss.

We do 1-2 loads a day. Family of four.
