I asked my kid to load her dirty dishes in the dishwasher and put away the clean dishes in the dish rack. she walked out of the kitchen 15 minutes later and said “I emptied the dishwasher and put the dirty dishes in”. I was like oh no…

we’ve hopefully found all the dirty dishes that were put away. I’m going to be paranoid the next fork I use was used to scrape cat food out of the can. maybe I’ll just prewash any dish I use for the foreseeable future 😦

it’s funny how much my attitude toward leftovers has changed from childhood to adulthood.

kid me: “ah, leftovers again? boring!”

adult me: “leftovers? you mean I don’t have to pay more money or cook more food? hell yeah!”
