Yes, Hell Really Is Freezing Over!


This is our latest purchase - last Thursday we went to Sears in Nelson and bought our very first dishwasher!! The sales were good and last night we actually tried it out. It's very quiet and seems to work. There's still dishes to do, of course, and I feel a bit guilty about all the water we'll use. These newer models are supposed to use a minimal amount of water. It does make the kitchen look much more finished and we only have to add a couple of rows of tile to complete the floor. Now if you don't believe hell is freezing over, read on to the next post about Dave's recent purchase.

They say the good ones use less water than doing dishes in the sink. It's the energy use more than anything (although your situation with water in unique). Don't use the drying cycle, which apparently uses up the majority of the energy.

Yes, we "think" we're using less water - I even measured the sink to estimate what a sinkfull would be and we don't use the dry option. Air drying has been good enough for all these years. Power use is another matter....
