do we have UO's?

[jillywilly]

I run my dishwasher at least daily, sometimes twice daily. I try to buy glass everything to avoid plastic tupperware not drying, because I put as much as possible in that sucker.

Also, I love fisherman's hats on DS. He doesn't, but then, I've yet to find a hat he doesn't try to immediately rip off his head.

jillywilly Twice?! Full both times? That's a lot of dishes!



ETA: Its prob not as much as I'm thinking, it's just that I do mine in dribs & drabs and don't notice.

Twice a day happens mostly on weekends - assume it got ran before we went to bed the night before, then you've got breakfast. If we make lunch at home, there's usually at least one pot or something, more dishes, bottles accumulate through the day... so we run it in the afternoon to make space for all the dinner stuff. H and I cook a lot.

UO: I don't understand having more than one social media account. I have Facebook... why do I need Instagram? Or Twitter? And the 80 gazillion other things that the youngsters are using these days? I don't understand, and refuse to join the rest of 2016. I'll stay in last decade with just my Facebook while I'm yelling at kids to get off my lawn.

Inspired by Cinco de Mayo... I don't like black beans (or really any beans) or cilantro, but I will eat them anyway.

[beersandweirs]

I dislike all beans as well (except coffee, of course)

Widget123 My sister hates cilantro too, she says it tastes like soap.

This also reminds me that we saw a restaurant called Cilantro in Palm Springs and I forgot to take a picture to send to my sister!

The parenting thread inspired my (pretty tame) UO for the day. I hate my dishwasher. Hate it. I never use it unless H insists. Loading & unloading the thing annoys me more than just washing the pots myself with my marigolds on.

My SIL was just saying this exact same thing! I love love LOVE my dishwasher. Having one and not loving it is just cray.

But yes, I hand wash O's bottles.

We bought a dishwasher for the first time about five months ago. I'm 38 and I've never had one before. I love it so very much.

madymoiselle, @hazeldublin, I agree completely. My parents help out a lot and they intend and want to do more as time goes on. I hope I don't take it for granted and I'm definitely grateful. In fact, my mum has a slightly sore back today, and she was surprised when I suggested she have a day off childcare tomorrow to rest her back.

Oh, and I don't have or want multiple social media accounts. Facebook suits me well. The rest I'm not interested in.

I can't stand baked beans either, but I don't think they're quite the same in the US. Do baked beans come in tins, in tomato sauce?

[erbear]

U.K. Baked beans are different, purple. Ours are isually in a brown sugar sauce.

FFThC: I could eat baked beans out of the can, not even warm.

Christ on a bike is better than Christ tap dancing on a cracker, which was my old favorite!

Also, the U.K. Baked beans sound disgusting and I could see why you would not want to eat them cold!

[pghtruelove]

erbear I could also eat backed beans out of the cold out of the can. Yum. Now I want baked beans.

They're disgusting, but extremely popular. I have to say that beans in a sugar sauce don't sound any less disgusting.

[sugarkissed]

I like baked beans in all forms. Hot cold/tomato/maple. YES.

We grew up chopping up hot dogs and putting them in beans for dinner. Classy family.

This is still one of my husband's favorite meals!

[stinybean]

Baked beans are nasty and thinking about eating them cold makes me nauseated.

You can buy baked beans with mini hotdogs over here. I think they're even more disgusting than baked beans without hotdogs!
