Some of you may have utilized this tip yesterday as you made your way thru all the Thanksgiving dishes, but if not give it a try...
Keep a sink full of hot soapy water while you're in the kitchen preparing a meal. Wash up the dirty items as you go. This is especially handy when you are preparing a big meal or serving lots of guests. I have a dishwasher, but the pots, pans, serving dishes, plates, and glasses will not fit if we're having guests. So, I wash as I go. Then all you really have left to go in the dishwasher are the glasses, plates, and a few serving pieces.
Give it a try! I think you'll find it really is a time saver...after all it doesn't take but a minute to wash out a pan or mixing bowl when you're done with it. This way, when you're done with the meal you don't have countertops full of dried pots and pans.
Happy cooking and cleaning! :)
