A moment of silence, please.

It happened last week. Our fine dishwasher, willed to us by the Neumanns after they got a brand new one, died and went to dishwasher heaven last week. A memorial service was held outside under the trees until the trusty appliance was moved to the curb. It was last seen being carted away by a kindly scrap metal scavenger, its organ donor card taped proudly to the side so that other dishwashers might live...

So sad. Do you think that you'll replace it or just go back to 100% hand-washed dishes?

Sad! RIP dishwasher-thing!

With just 3 people in the house and Clarissa just itching for opportunities to serve--handwashing it is!!! Just like in the "olden" days when all of the kiddies were home.

How sad :( We'll get out dishwashing hands ready.
