When all four of us (Bee, me, Charlie and Olive) are at home all day, we eat a total of six meals over the weekend. That's a whole lot of dishes! It can result in at least 4 loads for the dishwasher... sometimes even more, if there are dishes left over from Friday.
How many times do you run the dishwasher over the weekend?

I usually fill and run it every night. On the weekend sometimes it's twice a day. But we have a ton of dishes. Every night my parents are here as well so I have Dishes for 8.

We run it once a day (at night). I have tons of dishes so we have enough to eat 2-3 meals that day and run the dishwasher just once. I'll hand wash pots/pans if I end up using them more than once during the day and then pop them in the dishwasher for the nightly run.

We only run it 1-2x a week. We are gross and leave dishes in the sink.

On weekends we will run is everyday, yesterday we ran it twice even though it was just the 2 of us. But I have to admit, that I am terrible at loading it! I could probably fit in sooo many more dishes, but for some reason my brain can't figure it out! Oh well..

We probably only the run the dishwasher 2-3 times a week for the two of us. I always wait until it's as full as possible before washing a load, and hand wash plastic and big dishes as they come by. Dishes get pre-rinsed and loaded promptly....a good habit to get into, as we have very limited counter space!

I may actually run it less over the weekend. Maybe every day and a half or 2 days.... during the week it's once a day. But my son is gluten free (allergic to wheat) so I have to make all of his meals and snacks to send to daycare. The result is a TON of tupperware containers to be washed.

We rarely run the dishwasher, maybe once or twice a month? We hand wash our dishes, but we don't have a LO yet.
