Make Your Dishwashing a Little Bit More Efficient

* Note: this post assumes you have a dishwasher.  I lived without one for a couple of years before, and now I will never go back.

Do the dishes, forks, and spoons sometimes just sit in the dishwasher because you’ll “put them away later”?   This has certainly happened to me some times because it can feel like a chore.

Well, next time, be efficient in how you load the dishwasher.  Put all the forks together in one “slot”, all the spoons in another, and so on and so forth, grouped by where you actually put them away.   When the dishwasher’s done, simply pull out all the forks with one hand and put them in the right spot.  No need to sort out the silverware.

This isn’t quite as easy with cups, dishes, pots and pans though.  If you have any tips, please let us know in the comments!
