A soapless situation (Day 279)…
December 4, 2007
Upon asking a friend of mine for some green suggestions recently, he said I should use less soap when doing the dishes — in fact, he recommended not using any suds whatsoever unless there’s an oily residue.
“As long as you rinse the plate immediately,” he explained, “and as long as whatever’s on it is water soluble, you can just go without.” He then added in a conspiratorial whisper, “I never use soap.”
I must admit, having just let him do my dishes a couple hours ago, part of me wanted to redo them myself with a generous squeeze of Ecover detergent. But after thinking it over, I’ve decided this logic is sound — providing one uses a good amount of elbow grease to get all the cruddy stuff off, the dishes should stay relatively clean. Now all I need is a knock-kneed sweetie with a frilly apron to help me dry.
