Do your dishes ever get stacked up this bad? |
#1. Pizza Boxes - cut into shapes to form plates
#2. Card board boxes of all types (mac and cheese, cereal)
#3. The news paper spread out over the table.
#4. Plastic Grocery Bags one for each person tied in a knot to form a disposable plate or fused to form a more durable plate and cut to size. (the later was Zach's idea:)
#5. Plastic lids that you have no use for. I have tons of plastic or rubber lids that I have no other use for so we often grab some of these and eat on the top side and that works just like a plate. Although you do have to wash these if you want to repeat this in the future but it really makes things stretch if you already have a load of dishes in the dishwasher and don't want to stop them.
Do you know of any other clever ways to decrease the dishes without going out to eat?
