Helpful advice from a service technician…

Dishwasher 101: Don’t rinse your dishes first!

I’ll make it simple. If you’re in the habit of rinsing your dishes before loading them into your dishwasher, stop it. You’re wasting water and time. What you should do, however, is scrape off the major food particles. Scrape. Don’t Rinse. I know what you’re going to say. “Keith, they’re not going to get clean if I don’t rinse them first.” Yes, they will. A modern dishwasher can handle it. If your dishwasher is more than 10 years old its cleaning ability is suspect. Scrape. Load. Wash. Let your dishwasher do what it was designed to do.

Woman Warrior – Female samurai

Originally shared by Valeria Elisabeta

Woman Warrior – Female samurai

An onna-bugeisha was a type of female warrior belonging to the Japanese upper class. Many wives, widows, daughters, and rebels answered the call of duty by engaging in battle, commonly alongside samurai men. They were members of the bushi (samurai) class in feudal Japan and were trained in the use of weapons to protect their household, family, and honour in times of war. They also represented a divergence from the traditional ‘housewife’ role of the Japanese woman.
