Let's See Your Loaded Dishwasher

[TastyReuben]

For those members with an automatic dishwasher, let's see you dishwasher loading skills in action.

Are you orderly, or do you cram things in every which way? Are you a master at dish tetris?

Pre or post wash, doesn't matter. Here's mine just before running:

Perfect. Mine never is. Is that before or after washing?

....OK I spot some food traces so must be before. And I'm not concentrating because you said it was before running.

I'd have to snap mine at midnight when I go to bed as that is when its full. I put it on before I go to bed and partner unloads it in the morning (before I get up) and puts everything in the wrong place.

I no longer have a house so I'm the dishwasher. However, your post made me think of this image I saw a couple months back. The caption was something like "I live with monsters". ;-)

I was hoping someone would grab that joke. I'm not surprised it was you.

That's what MrsT does, except she's good for about a month, and then...POOF!...the ice cream scoop ends up in the utensils bucket instead of the drawer.

It took me three days to find a small pyrex jug. It was in a food cupboard where I keep tinned stuff.

Mine is about halfway between this and what Tasty does.

OFF WITH HER HEAD!! Everyone knows the ice cream scoop must go in the drawer, not the utensil bucket!!!

By the way, I never need to pre-rinse anything. I have a dog.

I'll see if I can get my wife to load the dishwasher next time. When she does it, she does so with geometric precision, and it almost looks like a design, like when aliens land in a cornfield.

Mine is mostly loaded, about 2/3rds, but as soon as it is entirely loaded, I'll snap my photo(s).

Tasty will go to the garage and quietly build the contraption. He'll get Mrs. Tasty out there and just look at the ground saying "Well, when you gotta guillotine, you gotta guillotine. It's been a nice run, dear." ;-)

The deal here is I cook, she cleans up after me, so she loads the washer. My wife is a power nazi, it has to be stacked to the max before setting it off. The original cycle starts at 112 mins, she forwards it to 1 hr to save power. Plugs can't be left in because it uses power? Wtf, I giggled it where it doesn't use power just plugged in and switched off. Doesn't believe me. Plugs come out.
I'll get a pick of her loaded machine.

Plugs here don't shut off, and the plug is behind the dishwasher, so there's no getting to that.

When we first moved to the UK, I didn't know about plugs having switches, and I could never figure out why the fridge in my hotel room wouldn't get cold.

Turned out the switch on the plug was turned off, so no matter how cold I put the setting on, it wasn't going to work.
