I would totally use something like this! I still let our dishes air-dry whenever when I wash them by hand. Reply
The advertised price would not even cover the postage these days! It is a tempting advertisement, isn’t it? Reply
Both my grandmothers and mothers pouring boiling water over their dishes in the drainer after washing. They called it “scalding the dishes.” Reply
I wonder how many were sold. It would cost about $36 today…
My grandmother always poured boiling water over her flatware…
They don’t mention how long it took for the dishes to air dry.
Will wonders never cease! I may need one too. 😂
I love it! I can also think of other uses for that little frame!
