The debate between using a dishwasher or hand-washing dishes comes down to water conservation, time, and energy spent. While dishwashers are generally better for the environment, hand-washing is necessary for non-dishwasher-safe items, fragile items, and one-off washing. Dishwashers save water and energy, remove tough stains, but can be costly and should only be used with a full load. Ultimately, the choice depends on the size of the load, the dishwasher model, and personal preferences.
Storing wine on the kitchen counter is a big no-no due to the heat, light, and temperature fluctuations that occur in the kitchen. Heat can damage the taste of the wine and cause the cork to push out, leading to air exposure and oxidation. The best places to store wine are in a cool, dark area such as a basement, closet, or under the bed. Wine experts recommend avoiding excessive wine storage and enjoying bottles in a timely manner.
