I hate doing dishes so much that I will buy plastic silverware, cups, and paper plates simply so I won't have to bother with a mess.
I made a deal with DH that I cook and he does dishes. It's been this way since we got married.
I have a dishwasher but still mostly wash by hand. I do them up after every use. I cant stand dishes sitting around...not even in a closed dishwasher. And with us being empty nesters, it takes a few days to fill the dishwasher up.
lol ive started using paper plates for the kids. it has helped dramatically!
