What does your kitchen look like right now?

Are the counters clean?

Is the refrigerator full of dirty dishes and rotting food?

Are the dishes washed?

We have a MEGA family.  It can be almost impossible to keep the kitchen in order!

We literally have at the very least ten people here at all times.

That number easily reaches up to twenty throughout the week!

Let’s just say there were only ten people here everyday.  Now let’s say each person used one plate for breakfast, one plate for lunch, and one plate for supper.

That’s 30 dirty plates at the end of the day, and that’s NOT counting any of the other dishes!

With that being said you can understand why my all time favorite gift is disposable dishes. 

My loving husband brought me home plates, bowls, cups, and silverware the other day.

Yes, he’s awesome!

It is true that disposable dishes aren’t the best choice for the environment, plus I do have to pay to have the garbage man haul all of it away, but sometimes we have to do things like this.

Dirty dishes end up costing us A LOT more money than the cost of disposable dishes.

No one wants to cook in a dirty kitchen.

Many times dirty dishes means a trip to the pizza shop, fast food restaurant, or even the local deli.

It leaves you feeling rotten, destroys your budget, and feeds your family less than healthy meals.
