It would have to be the dishwasher. I had never had one before we moved to this house. There are only two of us and I had never felt the need. The previous owners had had one though, so there was a space in the kitchen. Eventually we decided to buy a dishwasher and it has just been wonderful!

Last night though I put it on, and when I went back to the kitchen a little later it was making a funny noise and there was an electrical burning smell. I think my dishwasher is broken! Disaster! I'm going to have to take the whole load out and wash it by hand.
