Get a small dishwasher. Life is too short to wash pots and pans You can a nice slim one that works well for a limited number of plates etc.
Not on your life! Here, water costs a fortune, the obligatory
Calgon costs another one, and the exercise from washing said dishes helps me sleep! It's a matter of boring oneself to sleep; safer than popping yet more little helpers.
Thought this might indicate the kinds of places where I do
not have lunch:
A wealthy Jewish husband and his wife were having dinner at an upscale
restaurant when this absolutely stunning young woman comes over to their
table, gives the husband a big open mouthed kiss, then says she'll see him
later and walks away.
The wife glares at her husband and says, "Who the hell was that?"
"Oh," replies the husband, "she's my mistress."
"Well, that's the last straw," says the wife. "I've had enough, I want a divorce!"
"I can understand that," replies her husband, "but remember, if we get a
divorce it will mean no more shopping trips to Paris, no more wintering in
Barbados, no more summers in Tuscany, no more BMW in the garage and
no more yacht club. But the decision is yours."
Just then, a mutual friend enters the restaurant with a gorgeous babe on his arm.
"Who's that woman with George?" asks the wife. "That's his mistress," says
her husband.
“Ours is prettier," she replies.
