This may be standard practice for most people...but it took me awhile to realize why many people wear gloves to wash dishes. I absolutely feel motivated when I am wearing my size M, purple Playtex dish gloves. My hands don't get wet, I can have the water really hot, and I need only my gloved hands to scrape the plates and pick up trash. I enjoy washing the dishes with my children; we talk and laugh. Alone is another story, because I prefer to wash but not put away. I have a lot of put awayers here.
