wow, so many people keep their houses clean It's not uncommon for dishes to sit unwashed in my sink until they begin to stink. My thinking is that if there are still enough dishes to cook with and eat on, why wash them?
Guilty as charged in my bachelor days. I actually had a dish washer and used to just rinse things and stack them till the washer was full. That kind of came to a halt when Carole moved in though. Everything gets washed dryed at put away , every time. We've moved from my old pad too, and our current house has no dishwasher anyway, so his nibs here is #1 bottlewasher and cook.

We don't clean specifically for guests, but Carole goes around the house everyweekend anyway. kind of like the Tassies devil in those bugs bunny cartoons.
