Oh my god
11.23.2006
So 14 people did in fact show up for Thanksgiving as evinced by this partial pile of dishes. The sibs and I were given the task of bringing order to this chaos of used dishware. The entire experience was made slightly more complicated by the fact that Ma has some really excellent dishes from various other countries. The problem? Excellent they may be but dishwasher-safe they are not. I have no fear though. With the three of us on the job we shall vanquish the ceramic beast of Thanksgiving past.
I got so wet *shudder*
There were SOOO many dishes! The dishwasher was full at this point AND there was a pile of pots/pans/dishes on the stove.
That area by our heads is also the largest counter space in the whole kitchen.
Oh what happy dishwashers!
Matt, please provide a rendering of the proposed new kitchen, thanks. I believe if you erase the counter then you will be able to see the wall behind it.
This picture was taken pre-dishwashing, I’m not so sure we looked this happy afterwards.
