How to hand wash dishes

Cut down on the daily drudgery with some tricks. Hand wash dishes easily.

You Will Need:

* A fork
* A sink
* Hot water
* A dish tub or large pan
* A dishcloth
* A scrub brush, nylon mesh pad, or piece of steel wool
* Dishwashing liquid
* And a drying rack
* Used dryer sheets
* Rubber gloves
* Vinegar

For pots and pans with caked-on food, fill them with water, throw in a used dryer sheet, and let them stand for one hour. Never put a delicate glass bottom first into hot water, or it may crack. Slip it in sidewise. Rinse crystal pieces in one part vinegar to three parts warm water to get them sparkling. *

Doing a load of dishes in the dishwasher takes 11 gallons of water, while hand washing them takes 16.
