Washing Dishes

For the record, I absolutely hate washing dishes. I always make it a point to use my dishwasher, even if I have to run it multiple times to fit all of my dishes (if I've dirtied a lot). Loading my dishwasher only takes about five minutes, thank goodness. However, prior to having a dishwasher, I used to always listen to the radio whenever it was time to do the dishes. By listening and dancing to my favorite jams, I found that I focused less on the boring task of actually doing the dishes and it went by much faster! Another thing I did to distract myself when doing the dishes was to talk on the telephone. But the music is much better!

What a wonderful idea, that sounds like a great idea and makes the mundane task of washing dishes which most of us hate doing a little more enjoyable. I always find that if you have someone to help you do the dishes it makes it easier and more satisfying, one washes the dishes and one dries them, you can chat together and the job is done in half the time! If you haven't got a helper then music you can sing along to works wonders as well.

I almost always have a candle burning in the kitchen, but I also like to buy a nice smelling dish detergent too.

I use my dishwasher most of the time. When I wash dishes by hand I like to have solid peace and quiet and let the window in my kitchen up. During the spring time its nice I can hear the birds singing outside my window while i clean dishes. I hate housework period!! Candles seem to do that dont they?
