Weekend Advice

You know how there is a blog carnival called "Works for me Wednesday"?


Well this post should be entitled, "Shouldn't Have Done That Saturday'.

So, for the first installment, for surely this won't be the last, I give you this:

Never, under any circumstances put dish washing liquid in you dishwasher. 

I ran out of machine gel and thought that just a little bit of liquid would be better than nothing but... it's not.

I am currently trying to run the machine without any soap at all in hopes that I might find my dishes again!

La Vida Dulce!

Girl, we are kindred spirits. I am sure of it. :)

The kids are probably loving it!

oo no!! I had a friend do that in college and came home to a kitchen filled w/ soap suds!

Oh my gosh I know what a mess that is! I did that when I was younger and still living at home. I thought my mom was going to kill me

Oh dear!

I put dish soap in the dishwasher once. It was the dishwasher in the kitchen AT MY CHURCH. Oh, it was a big mess.

Thankfully, I was married to the cute, young preacher and so no one yelled at me. They probably wanted to though.

Totally something I would do, too, Kellie...that is so funny. Now I know never to try that!

Tiffani said...

Yep, heard of that happening, you've confirmed... :)

I like the title though..."Shouldn't Have Done That Saturday"..I'm CERTAIN I'll have something to contribute before long so stay tuned!

Hmm...maybe I can use this somehow to prove my diswasher doesn't function and justify getting the one I really need...

This is so funny to me!!! This happened to me when I was a teenager. I filled up the whole dishwasher section with dish liquid. Bubbles were E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E. Hope your mess came up easily!

I'm laughing because I did this just a few weeks ago. I had a tiny bit of dishwashing liquid in a container and put it on the top rack. My kitchen was flooded with suds in minutes. It was a mess!

Allison said...

My husband did this when he was young and his mom still talks about it. But she didn't have a picture of it...lol! Good Luck in finding your dishes.
