dishes also done by hand
Here's the thing... I've never had much luck with dishwashers. They etch my glasses, they permanently bond any left over food on to my plates, they are rough on my vintage dishes, and they are noisy. I'm told that new ones are better about all of those things but when I have enough extra money lying around to buy one, I'm going to use that money to buy something fun like fabric or a new water heater. I also adore my galley kitchen. Everything is right there where I need it, when I need it, but baking can be a bit pan intensive. I was keeping all my baking pans on a shelf in the basement.
but then, the dishwasher was removed -
shelves were made and rigorously tested -
once the paint cured, I loaded them with serving pieces -
I was able to hide all my cake and bread pans in the cupboard where the serving pieces used to sit. My favorite part though is the muffin papers in the jar (that part was lulu's job).
