People are weird.
Do most people use more plate/silverware dishes, or pots/pans/bowls. I am a single person, and I at most for one meal I use a plate and a bowl, but I can use 2 - 3 pans and mixing type bowls. I was shopping for a dish rack, and realized all of them are for dishes, with nowhere to really put the pans, so I started thinking I use an excessive amount of pans. Or maybe the ratio is just different for non-living-alone type people. But I am not sure what to do about a dish rack.
But I am not sure what to do about a dish rack.
When I wash pots and pans, I set them on the stovetop to dry.
Sophia, mine are all precariously stacked on the counter next to the dishrack. Or on top of the dishes if there aren't a lot in the dishrack.
So my boss just told me our biggest client will continue to have work for us until at least the end of 2017.
I should still be looking for a different job at some point, but I no longer have to worry I'll be unemployed in a year. So that's a big anxiety relief for me.
Thanks, Hil; I really appreciate the pointers!
I got myself a quick-drying mat to stack drying pots, pans, non-dishes, overflow from my dish rack, and I'm pretty happy with it. Used to use towels but they pretty soggy pretty fast.
This is what sarameg's office looks like
I want that thing for my regular desk. All the blinky lights!
I have been stacking everything on the counter, because I threw away my dishrack! But now that I went to buy one, it seems silly, because I have one dish! Maybe I should just get one of those dish mat things-- we never had a dish rack growing up because we had to dry them.
What is this quick drying mat? Maybe that is what I need!
If I washed dishes everyday, I wouldn't need a dishrack. But I generally have several forks and a couple of plates and bowls. I microwave a lot of left overs.
