Ode to Appliance Joy, Installment One

It is not new. In fact it is about 10 years old.

Nor is it particularly spiffy in design.

But it functions.

And it is ours.


Yes, it is the dishwasher of which I speak. E grew up with one that functioned intermittently. I've never had one until now and needed lessons on how to use it. What a joy. The sound is so comforting – the sound of something being handled FOR YOU. I would hug it if the cabinet weren't in the way.

Sigh. E's still my number one, but my dishwasher is quickly becoming a beloved friend.

Overstating? Probably. Concerned about that? Nope.
